## About Giampaolo Talani

Giampaolo Talani (1955–2018) was an Italian painter, sculptor, and writer. His public identity is documented through library authority records, Wikidata, and the artist's official website. Talani's practice includes paintings, sculptures, frescoes, public works, engravings, and graphic editions, giving collectors and researchers several types of objects to distinguish when identifying his work. The official site also highlights Partenze, a recurring body of work associated with the artist's imagery and public presence. Talani appears in auction and appraisal contexts across fine art, works on paper, sculpture, mixed media, and editions. For collectors, accurate identification depends on the medium, date, dimensions, signature or inscriptions, provenance, and any catalogue or exhibition references. These details are especially important when comparing an original painting or sculpture with a print, graphic work, or edition.

## Common works and media

Auction and appraisal records for Giampaolo Talani may include paintings, sculptures, fresco-related works, public-art objects, engravings, graphic works, prints, and editions. The artist's official website organizes his work into paintings and sculptures, frescoes, public works, engravings, capricci, and graphics, with separate shop categories for graphics and sculptures. When reviewing a suspected Talani work, record the medium, support or construction, dimensions, date, title, signature, edition information, and provenance. These distinctions help prevent comparisons between materially different objects, such as a unique painting, a sculpture, an engraving, or a multiple edition.

## Market and appraisal context

Talani's public auction profile includes paintings and fine art, works on paper and prints, sculpture or mixed media, and decorative art or editions. Appraisal should begin with genuinely comparable works: the same medium, a similar date or career period, comparable dimensions, and a related subject or series. Condition, restoration, surface quality, signature, inscriptions, edition details, attribution confidence, provenance, exhibition history, and catalogue references can materially affect the result. Appraisily's matched public records provide a useful comparison set, but they do not represent every private sale or guarantee an outcome. A defensible valuation should therefore separate original works from editions and weigh the available sale history alongside the object's documented condition and ownership history.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist identity research with public auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Results remain dependent on the completeness and accuracy of the underlying public records.
