## About Georgij Dmitrievic Lavrov

Georgij Dmitrievic Lavrov (1895–1991), also represented in public records as Georgy Lavrov and Georges Lavroff, was a Russian sculptor and painter. Authority records identify him as a Russian sculptor, while the collected biographical summaries associate his work with Art Deco and describe a practice spanning animal, portrait, and monumental subjects. Sculpture appears to be the clearest collecting context: public descriptions specifically mention animal bronzes and craquelure ceramics, alongside his activity as a painter. These categories help explain why collectors may encounter his name on objects that differ substantially in material, scale, and purpose. Because his name appears in several Latin-alphabet transliterations as well as Cyrillic, careful identity matching is important when researching signatures, catalogue entries, and prior sales. The available source pack establishes his basic identity and working fields, but a museum biography, catalogue raisonné, or artist-estate resource was not available to document chronology, training, workshops, or individual works in greater depth.

## Common works and media

Collectors may encounter Lavrov's sculptures, especially animal subjects described in bronze or craquelure ceramic, as well as paintings. The collected summaries also identify portrait and monumental work. Available evidence does not establish specific editions, named series, foundries, dimensions, or a definitive catalogue of works.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal should begin by confirming that a work belongs to this Lavrov identity, since authority and encyclopedia records use several spellings, including Georgij Dmitrievič Lavrov, Georgy Lavrov, and Georges Lavroff. Works should then be compared within the appropriate category: bronze animal sculpture, craquelure ceramic, or painting. Subject type also matters when selecting relevant comparables, because the collected sources describe animal, portrait, and monumental practices. The supplied pack does not document edition sizes, foundries, casting dates, signatures, provenance, condition effects, or price trends, and the public auction page could not be retrieved during collection. Those questions require examination of the object and verified sale records. No value conclusion should be drawn from the biographical evidence alone.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. For this profile, identity evidence is stronger than the currently accessible object-level market evidence.
