## About Konstantin Alekseevic Korovin

Konstantin Alekseevic Korovin (1861–1939), widely indexed as Konstantin Korovin, was a Russian artist associated with Impressionism. Getty’s authority record identifies him as a painter, sculptor, and printmaker, while IdRef also records his activity as a scenographer. This breadth matters for collectors because his name may appear in connection with fine art, works on paper, and theater-related material rather than a single medium. Authority records preserve many forms of his name, including Alekseyevich, Alekseevich, Alekseevič, Korovine, and the Cyrillic Коровин, Константин Алексеевич. These variants should be reconciled when searching catalogues, collection records, and auction archives. IdRef reports that Korovin emigrated to Paris after 1923, giving his career both Russian and later Parisian contexts. His documented work across visual art and scenography helps explain the range of objects and records that collectors may encounter under his name.

## Common works and media

Objects catalogued under Korovin’s name may include paintings, prints, sculpture, and scenic or theatrical designs. The collected authority records establish those areas of practice but do not provide enough object-level evidence to identify recurring subjects, preferred supports, edition sizes, or the relative auction frequency of each category. Research should include the artist’s transliterated, French, abbreviated, and Cyrillic name forms.

## Market and appraisal context

Korovin’s auction record should be assessed by comparing like with like. Authority sources document several practices—painting, printmaking, sculpture, and scenography—so a result from one category may not provide a meaningful comparison for another. Name normalization also matters because records may appear under Korovin, Korovine, Cyrillic forms, or different transliterations of his patronymic. The collected Appraisily input reports 1,239 associated records, but this source pack does not expose the individual lot details needed to evaluate condition, provenance, edition status, attribution language, or market direction. An appraisal should therefore examine the specific object and select comparable public sales by medium, work type, date, sale context, and documented realized price.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records and auction-house context, including sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Authority records help reconcile names, dates, nationality, and artistic roles.
