## About Johan Rohde

Johan Rohde (1856–1935) was a Danish painter, lithographer and designer. Public authority data confirms the artist’s identity and lifespan, while biographical summaries give his fuller name as Johan Gudmann Rohde. He is described as the principal founder of Den Frie Udstilling, established in 1891 to create an exhibition route outside the Academy’s selection system. Some public summaries also associate his activity with the introduction or promotion of Impressionist and Symbolist directions in Denmark, though the collected support for those movement labels is limited to secondary sources. Collectors may encounter his name in connection with paintings, lithographs and design-related works, and catalogues may use Johan Gudmann Rohde or Johan Gudman Rohde. Because his practice crossed fine art and design, work-specific identification remains important; the source pack does not establish particular subjects, named series, or a catalogue raisonné.

## Common works and media

The collected evidence supports page categories for paintings and lithographs, together with a separate design-related category. It does not establish recurring subjects, specific design materials, named series, print editions, or the relative frequency of these work types at auction. Individual objects should therefore be classified from their own medium, construction, inscriptions, and documentation rather than from the artist name alone.

## Market and appraisal context

An appraisal should begin by separating paintings, lithographs, and design-related works because the source pack identifies Rohde with all three areas but does not provide category-level sale distributions. Comparisons should remain within the relevant work type and medium. Identity also needs careful matching because records may use Johan Rohde, Johan Gudmann Rohde, or Johan Gudman Rohde. Appraisily’s public artist page indicates an existing auction-price dataset, but its collected response supplies no individual realized prices or evidence of market trends. The pack likewise provides no lot-specific provenance, condition, dimensions, edition status, inscriptions, or authenticity findings. Those points require evidence from the individual work and its documentation; identity sources alone do not support a price forecast.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records and auction-house context. When records are available, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots can supplement the identity evidence; this source pack does not itself provide lot-level results.
