## About Lothar Quinte

Lothar Quinte (1923–2000) was a German painter associated in the collected references with the postwar avant-garde and Op Art. Authority and museum identifiers connect his name across Wikidata, Getty ULAN, VIAF, the Library of Congress, the German National Library, MoMA, RKD, BnF, and other catalogues. The available biographical overview gives his birth as 13 April 1923 in Niesse and his death as 29 July 2000 in Wintzenbach. Collectors may encounter Quinte through paintings and public auction listings, where accurate identity matching is important because brief catalogue entries can provide less context than institutional records. The present source pack supports his basic identity and broad artistic context, but it does not document particular subjects, named series, techniques, or phases of production. Those details should therefore be established from the individual object and its catalogue history rather than inferred from this summary.

## Common works and media

The available authority material identifies Quinte as a painter, making paintings the only work type supported clearly by this source pack. It does not provide enough evidence to characterize recurring subjects, named series, print editions, drawings, sculptures, ceramics, posters, or particular painting techniques. Any such classification should be taken from the individual work and its documented catalogue entry.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisily maintains an auction-price page for Lothar Quinte, but this collected source pack does not include the underlying lot descriptions, realized prices, condition reports, provenance, dimensions, dates, or edition information. It therefore cannot support a price trend, a scarcity claim, or a list of artist-specific value premiums. A responsible appraisal should begin by confirming that the object and catalogue attribution refer to this German painter, then consult comparable public auction records with sufficiently detailed cataloguing. Market conclusions should come from those record-level comparisons, not from the short biographical and authority references used to establish the artist's identity here.

## 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. This profile distinguishes verified identity evidence from market details that still require record-level review.
