## About Rudolf Mumprecht

Rudolf Mumprecht (1918–2019) was a Swiss painter and draughtsman whose documented practice also included engraving, lithography, and illustration. Authority records connect his name with catalogued work spanning much of the twentieth century, including a 1982 catalogue covering pictures dated from 1936 to 1982 and a catalogue grouping titled Figur for 1936–1950. These records make him relevant to collectors across several object types: paintings and drawings, prints identified by technique, and illustrated material. The available sources do not support assigning Mumprecht to a named movement, so his work is better presented through documented media and catalogue contexts than through a speculative style label. Collectors may encounter his name in auction records attached to works on paper, prints, or paintings, where precise technique and catalogue context matter for entity matching. Library and museum authority identifiers help distinguish Rudolf Mumprecht from similarly named people and connect records to the same Swiss artist.

## Common works and media

Collectors may encounter paintings, drawings and other works on paper, engravings, lithographs, and illustrated material attributed to Rudolf Mumprecht. Authority records also document a catalogue grouping titled Figur for work dated 1936–1950. Technique should be recorded precisely, since an engraving, lithograph, drawing, and painting require different groups of comparable auction records.

## Market and appraisal context

A market assessment should begin by identifying whether a work is a painting, drawing, engraving, lithograph, or another illustrated object. For prints, the specific technique should be matched carefully when selecting comparable records. A proposed date may also be checked against the documented catalogue coverage for pictures from 1936–1982 and the Figur grouping from 1936–1950. Appraisily’s artist page indicates that auction records are associated with Mumprecht, but the collected source pack does not include individual sale results, dimensions, provenance, edition information, or condition reports. Those lot-level details must be verified before drawing an appraisal conclusion, and the available evidence does not support a price trend or prediction.

## 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. Conclusions should remain tied to verified lot-level evidence.
