## About Michele Marieschi

Michele Marieschi was an eighteenth-century Venetian painter and engraver, generally dated 1710–1743 in the stronger clustered authority records. He is best known for vedute—city views—of Venice, alongside landscapes and architectural compositions. These subjects place him within Venice's view-painting culture, where recognizable urban settings and imaginative architectural staging could coexist. His recorded activity also includes printmaking: library catalogues identify him as an engraver and associate his name with Magnificentiores selectioresque urbis Venetiarum prospectus, a series of Venetian views. Collectors may therefore encounter Marieschi's name on both paintings and prints, rather than on a single type of object. The identity record requires care: another authority cluster gives 1696 as his birth year, while some records vary the death year between 1743 and 1744. Appraisily uses 1710–1743 as the best-supported working chronology while preserving those conflicts for further research.

## Common works and media

Works associated with Marieschi most commonly include painted Venetian views or vedute, broader landscapes, and architectural compositions. Engravings and other prints also appear in the documented record, especially views connected with Magnificentiores selectioresque urbis Venetiarum prospectus. Because paintings and prints are materially different categories, a collector should identify the work type and subject before selecting comparable auction records.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal begins by establishing whether a work is a painting or a print and then classifying its subject as a Venetian veduta, landscape, or architectural composition. Prints can be compared with the documented Venice-view series and its recorded subjects, while paintings should be assessed against closely related works rather than an artist-wide average. The split authority record makes precise cataloguing important but does not, by itself, prove or disprove attribution. When comparable public auction records are available, medium, subject, sale date, and realized price provide useful context. The present source pack lacks detailed major-auction-house evidence, so it does not support a price trend, scarcity claim, or forecast.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identities with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Conflicting authority data and gaps in market evidence are retained rather than silently resolved.
