## About Rene Pean

René Péan (1875–1955), whose full name was René Louis Péan, was a French painter, poster artist, and illustrator. Born in Paris and later dying in Ermont, Val-d'Oise, he is documented in Wikidata and French Wikipedia and linked to a wider group of library and art-authority identifiers. The source pack does not support assigning him to a named movement or school, so this page treats his professional roles—not a speculative stylistic label—as the clearest context for his work. Collectors may encounter his name on paintings, posters, and illustration-related material, sometimes under the unaccented form “Rene Pean.” For entity matching, the accented name “René Péan,” the fuller “René Louis Péan,” and the dates 1875–1955 are especially useful. The available evidence establishes his basic identity, but richer museum, scholarly, and catalogue documentation would be needed to describe his training, exhibitions, stylistic development, subjects, or major series with confidence.

## Common works and media

The source pack identifies Péan as a painter, poster artist, and illustrator. The safest common-work groupings are therefore paintings, posters, and illustration-related material. It does not document specific techniques, supports, recurring subjects, editions, series, or print processes, so those details should be determined from the individual object and its catalogue record rather than generalized across the artist's work.

## Market and appraisal context

The supplied Appraisily input associates 253 auction records with René Péan, indicating a substantial body of indexed results under this artist name. The source pack, however, does not expose individual lot descriptions, sale dates, estimates, realized prices, dimensions, condition reports, or provenance. An appraisal should therefore separate paintings, posters, and illustration-related works and compare only records with compatible cataloguing. Identity should also be checked against the accented and full-name forms. This profile does not support a price trend, a typical value range, or a claim that every indexed lot is securely attributed to the artist.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. This profile flags where the collected source pack lacks lot-level detail.
