## About Pere Pruna

Pere Pruna (1904–1977) was a Spanish painter and illustrator whose authority records identify him more fully as Pere Pruna i Ocerans and list Pedro Pruna among his catalogued name variants. Born and deceased in Barcelona, he is described by the available biographical material as a figurative artist. His career belongs to the twentieth-century Spanish art context, although the collected sources do not provide enough institution-grade detail to assign a narrower movement or document distinct periods with confidence. Collectors may encounter his name in painting records, illustrated publications, and catalogues under several forms, making careful entity matching especially important. Appraisily’s source input associates 253 auction records with this artist page, providing a basis for comparable-record research. Individual objects still require separate examination because the available identity sources do not establish their specific materials, subjects, dates, attribution, condition, or provenance.

## Common works and media

The collected sources support paintings and illustration as the principal work types associated with Pere Pruna. Figurative work is documented at a general level, but the source pack does not establish recurring subjects, named series, specific painting materials, print editions, sculpture, ceramics, or posters. Those classifications should be added only when supported by the individual object or a documented auction record.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal should begin by distinguishing paintings from illustration-related material and reconciling cataloguing under Pere Pruna, Pedro Pruna, or fuller surname variants. The collected Appraisily input reports 253 associated auction records, but this source pack does not include major-auction-house descriptions or enough lot-level evidence to identify dependable price patterns. Comparisons should therefore remain within closely matched work types and use documented sale dates and realized prices when available. The evidence does not support predictions about future value, scarcity, or premiums for particular subjects or periods. Object-specific conclusions require examination of the work and its accompanying documentation.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identity and name variants with associated auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Identity evidence and object-level market evidence are evaluated separately.
