## About Italo Valenti

Italo Valenti (1912–1995) was an Italian painter. Authority links in the collected record connect the same artist identity across Wikidata, Getty ULAN, VIAF, the Library of Congress, Tate, RKD, and Art UK. A German-language reference associates Valenti with Informel, although the available museum and authority excerpts do not provide enough evidence to present that classification as fully verified. Collectors may encounter his name in auction records for paintings, but this source pack does not establish a detailed career chronology, specific techniques, recurring subjects, or named series. For appraisal and cataloguing, the safest starting point is therefore the confirmed name, lifespan, nationality, painter occupation, and authority identifiers. Those identity facts should then be considered separately from object-level documentation and comparable-sale evidence.

## Common works and media

The collected sources identify Valenti as a painter, making paintings the only work type that can be stated with confidence here. They do not establish particular supports, techniques, subjects, editions, works on paper, sculpture, ceramics, posters, or named series. Auction and appraisal records should therefore describe each submitted object from direct evidence rather than infer its medium or category from the artist’s name.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily’s public artist page indicates that auction records are associated with Italo Valenti, but the collected pack provides no individual lot descriptions, auction-house notes, sale dates, or realized-price examples. The supported market starting points are therefore correct entity matching and comparison with relevant public auction records when those records can be inspected. This evidence does not justify a price forecast, trend statement, scarcity claim, or ranking of particular media or subjects. Any future appraisal should distinguish verified artist identity from object-level and sale-level evidence, and it should state clearly when comparable-lot data are unavailable or too thin to support a conclusion.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records and, when available, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. This profile distinguishes verified identity evidence from market information not supplied by the collected source pack.
