## About Luís García-Ochoa

Luís García-Ochoa (1920–2019), also catalogued as Luis García-Ochoa Ibáñez, was a Spanish painter and graphic artist. VIAF connects his authority record to Spanish publications and identifies both painting and graphic art among his occupations. Spanish-language reference sources also describe him as an academic of fine arts. No movement or school is assigned here because the collected evidence does not provide institution-grade support for a specific association. Collectors may encounter his name on paintings, works on paper, prints, and other graphic works, with catalogues using spelling variants that omit accents, the hyphen, or the surname Ibáñez. Those variations matter when researching authorship and locating comparable sales. Appraisal research should therefore reconcile the object, signature, medium, and provenance with the artist's authority identities rather than relying on a name match alone.

## Common works and media

Collectors are most likely to encounter Luís García-Ochoa through paintings and graphic works. Auction records also place works under works on paper and prints, with less certain representation in sculpture, mixed media, decorative art, and editions. For prints or other multiples, the technique, edition size, impression number, paper, inscriptions, and condition should be recorded. For unique works, document the support, dimensions, signature, date, surface condition, restoration, and provenance before selecting comparables.

## Market and appraisal context

Public auction data provides a useful starting point for understanding Luís García-Ochoa's market, but results should be compared at the object level. Medium, dimensions, date, career period, subject, condition, restoration, signature, inscriptions, edition information, provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, and attribution confidence may all affect comparability. Appraisily's collected records span several broad categories, and the source page notes that category concentration remains sparse. A painting should not be compared mechanically with a print, edition, or mixed-media object. Reported prices may also differ in their treatment of buyer premiums and fees. Private transactions, incomplete feeds, and later attribution changes may be absent, so public results do not replace physical inspection, authentication research, or a qualified appraisal.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with matched auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Identity matches, attribution, condition, and record completeness should be reviewed before drawing appraisal conclusions.
