## About Marcel-Louis Baugniet

Marcel-Louis Baugniet (1896–1995) was a Belgian artist, painter, designer, and writer associated by biographical sources with the Belgian avant-garde. Born in Liège and later dying in Brussels, he worked across fine and applied arts rather than within a single object type. The collected sources describe abstract painting and collage alongside furniture, ceramics, posters, advertising illustration, tapestry design, and stage sets. That range matters for entity matching: his name may be attached not only to paintings but also to designed objects and graphic material. Library authority records consistently identify him under the 1896–1995 life dates, while recorded name forms include Baugniet, Marcel-Louis and Marcel Baugniet. Collectors may therefore encounter his work through modern Belgian art, design, or works-on-paper contexts. The evidence is strongest on identity and broad creative roles; detailed chronology, named series, exhibition history, and institution-grade movement classification remain less well documented in this source pack.

## Common works and media

Documented work types include abstract paintings, collages, furniture designs, ceramics, posters and other applied graphics, advertising illustrations, tapestry designs, and stage-set designs. The source pack does not identify recurring subjects, named series, print editions, or specific production workshops. For appraisal purposes, a unique artwork should be distinguished from a preparatory design, printed graphic, or manufactured object before selecting comparable records.

## Market and appraisal context

The available sources establish a broad, multidisciplinary body of work but do not provide lot-level auction descriptions, condition reports, dimensions, provenance, edition information, or realized-price history. An appraisal should begin by determining whether the object is a painting, collage, graphic design, ceramic, or furniture or design work, since those categories are not interchangeable. Attribution, date, medium, dimensions, condition, provenance, and whether a design is unique or associated with production should then be examined for the specific object. Public auction comparisons should use closely related works and account for sale date and realized price where records are available. This profile does not assert a price trend or forecast.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist identity research with available auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. Coverage varies by artist and object category, so conclusions should be checked against the underlying records and the specific work being appraised.
