## About Lionel Vinche

Lionel Vinche (21 October 1936–12 September 2025) was a Belgian painter. VIAF also records him as an illustrator, adding a second documented context for material associated with his name. Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and RKD connect Vinche to stable public identifiers, helping reconcile variations in how his name may appear across library and auction records. The available sources do not assign him to a documented movement or school, nor do they establish recurring subjects, named series, or specific painting techniques. This page should therefore be read as an identity-led overview rather than a stylistic catalogue raisonné. Collectors may encounter paintings, illustrated material, and auction records catalogued under Vinche's name, but each object requires its own supporting description and documentation. The present evidence is sufficient to distinguish the artist as a Belgian painter and illustrator while leaving more detailed artistic classification open.

## Common works and media

The source pack identifies painting as Vinche's principal work context and also records him as an illustrator. It does not establish particular supports, techniques, subjects, editions, named series, sculptures, ceramics, posters, or print categories. A work offered under his name should therefore be classified from its individual catalogue description rather than from assumptions about a characteristic medium or subject.

## Market and appraisal context

Market review should begin by confirming that a lot refers to the Lionel Vinche represented by Wikidata, VIAF, and Getty ULAN. The source pack supports painting and illustration as relevant work contexts, but it does not provide lot-level evidence for particular media, subjects, editions, dimensions, condition, provenance, sale dates, or realized prices. Those details must come from the individual catalogue entry and should be compared only with genuinely similar public sales. Appraisily's public artist page signals auction records catalogued under this name, although the collected response did not expose the underlying lots. This evidence does not support a price trend, typical value range, or claim about scarcity.

## 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.
