## About Herman Verbaere

Herman Verbaere was a Belgian painter who also worked as a draftsman, watercolorist, lithographer, and designer of postage stamps. These varied practices mean collectors may encounter his name on paintings as well as works on paper and graphic designs. Public identity records agree that he died in 1993, but they disagree about his birth year: the IdRef authority record gives 1906, while the French-language Wikipedia biography reports 13 March 1905. That conflict should be retained when matching catalog records rather than silently resolved. The available sources do not establish a specific movement, school, recurring subject, or named series, so this profile avoids assigning one. Verbaere's activity across painting, drawing, watercolor, lithography, and stamp design provides the clearest available framework for understanding his work and for separating objects that may appear under his name in auction and appraisal contexts.

## Common works and media

Works encountered under Herman Verbaere's name may include paintings, drawings, watercolors, and lithographs. Biographical material also identifies him as a postage-stamp designer, expanding his documented practice beyond unique fine-art objects. The source pack does not establish particular subjects, named series, edition sizes, or favored formats, so those details should be determined from the individual object and its documentation.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily's current input associates 201 auction records with Herman Verbaere. That record count suggests repeated appearances under his name, but it does not by itself establish a price trend or a reliable value range. Comparisons should separate paintings from drawings, watercolors, and lithographs because the available identity research documents activity in each medium. The collected source pack does not include accessible lot-level evidence from a major auction house, so individual catalog descriptions, sale dates, realized prices, and artist identification still require record-level review. The disagreement over Verbaere's birth year also makes careful entity matching important before another sale is treated as a comparable result.

## 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 and can be matched reliably.
