## About Stanley Roy Badmin

Stanley Roy Badmin (1906–1989) was a British, more specifically English, painter, watercolorist, draftsman, etcher, printmaker, and illustrator. He is particularly associated with landscape imagery and book illustration. Collectors may therefore encounter his name on watercolors, drawings, etched prints, and illustration-related works rather than within a single uniform body of objects. Library and artist-name authorities distinguish him through established records at VIAF, Getty ULAN, the Library of Congress, ISNI, and Wikidata, helping connect variant catalogue entries such as “S. R. Badmin” with the same artist. The available sources emphasize his close observation of landscape, including trees, but do not securely assign him to a named modern-art movement or provide enough evidence for a formal series chronology. His varied practice across original works on paper and reproducible graphic media makes accurate identification of medium and work type especially important when reviewing an example attributed to him.

## Common works and media

Works encountered under Badmin's name may include landscape watercolors, drawings, etchings and other prints, paintings, and material connected with book illustration. Authority records specifically identify him as a watercolorist and draftsman, while biographical summaries emphasize etching, illustration, and landscapes. Because an original watercolor, a drawing, and a printed impression are materially different objects, cataloguing should clearly identify the technique and whether the work is unique or printed before comparable auction lots are selected.

## Market and appraisal context

Badmin's market should be assessed by comparing like with like: a watercolor, drawing, etching, or illustration-related work may belong to a different auction category and comparable set. Landscape subject matter is documented as central to his practice, so the closeness of an object to that established work can help guide comparable-lot selection. Appraisily's artist input reports 199 auction records, but the source pack does not contain the individual cataloguing, dimensions, condition notes, sale dates, or realized prices needed to derive a defensible trend or value range. An appraisal should therefore combine examination of the object with lot-level auction evidence and should treat any isolated result as context rather than a price prediction.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with auction records and, when available, auction-house cataloguing, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. This profile's identity evidence is stronger than its collected lot-level market evidence, so valuation conclusions require review of the specific object and relevant public sales.
