## About Vladimir Davidovic Baranov-Rossine

Vladimir Baranov-Rossiné (1888–1944) was a Russian painter, sculptor, and inventor born in Kherson and recorded as having died at Auschwitz. Authority files preserve numerous spellings of his name, especially Baranov-Rossiné and Baranoff-Rossiné, which matters when matching works and catalog records. Public biographical sources place his work in the Russian avant-garde and specifically associate it with Cubo-Futurism. They also describe activity in Russia and France. Beyond painting and sculpture, he investigated color-music and light-based kinetic ideas and devised an optophonic piano. This combination of visual art and experimental invention makes his identity broader than that of a painter alone. Collectors may encounter paintings, sculptures, exhibition references, or records filed under different transliterations of his surname and patronymic. Careful authority matching is therefore important before connecting an object or auction result to the artist. Exact birth-day reporting varies across public sources, but the years 1888 and 1944 are consistently supported.

## Common works and media

Collectors and researchers may encounter paintings and sculptures, as well as material connected with Baranov-Rossiné's color-music and light-based experiments. His optophonic piano belongs to the inventive side of his practice rather than a conventional auction category. Records may appear under Baranov-Rossiné, Baranoff-Rossiné, Wladimir, Vladimir Davidovich, or Cyrillic forms, so searches should cover multiple authority-supported spellings.

## Market and appraisal context

Market research should begin by resolving the artist's many transliterated names and confirming that a record concerns the same Vladimir Baranov-Rossiné. The source pack identifies painting and sculpture as core work types and connects the artist with Cubo-Futurism, the Russian avant-garde, and experimental color-music projects. Those distinctions can help determine which auction records are genuinely comparable. Appraisily's artist index reports associated auction records, but the collected material does not include enough lot-level evidence to support a price trend or prediction. A defensible appraisal should examine the individual object's attribution, work type, date, documentation, and relationship to securely matched public sales rather than relying on the artist name or record count alone.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identity and authority records with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Each object still requires individual attribution and appraisal analysis.
