## About Miguel Angel Campano

Miguel Ángel Campano Mendaza (1948–2018) was a Spanish painter whose identity is documented across Wikidata, VIAF, Getty ULAN, and national-library authority systems. VIAF-linked authority data also describes him as a printmaker. Critical summaries associate Campano with the generation credited with renewing Spanish painting, although the collected source pack does not contain a museum or scholarly text that defines this association as a formal movement. Collectors may encounter his name in connection with paintings and printed works, with catalogue records appearing under accented and unaccented forms of his name. The fuller form, Miguel Ángel Campano Mendaza, is useful when checking authorship, exhibition references, and bibliographic records. Because the available institutional material is strongest on identity rather than artistic chronology, claims about particular subjects, stylistic phases, or named series should be supported by additional work-specific documentation.

## Common works and media

The clearest documented work types are paintings and prints: multiple authority sources identify Campano as a painter, while VIAF-linked data also identifies him as a printmaker. Those categories are appropriate starting points for auction and appraisal research. The collected sources do not reliably establish recurring subjects, named series, sculpture, ceramics, posters, or specific print processes, so those classifications should be added only when an individual work or stronger catalogue documentation supports them.

## Market and appraisal context

An appraisal should first confirm that an object is associated with the Spanish painter and printmaker Miguel Ángel Campano, since authority records contain several forms of his name. The source pack supports paintings and prints as relevant work types, so comparisons should distinguish between those media and use like-for-like public sales where available. Sale date, realized price, and the similarity of comparable lots can then provide market context. The collected evidence does not include detailed major-auction-house analysis, however, and it does not support claims about price trends, scarcity, or a record result. Attribution, date, edition information, provenance, and condition therefore require object-level documentation rather than inference from the artist page alone.

## 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. Authority records support identity matching; object-level evidence remains necessary for attribution and appraisal.
