## About Yachen Wang

Yachen Wang, also catalogued as Wang Ya-chen, Wang, Yachen, and 汪亞塵, was a Chinese painter whose authority records give the life dates 1894–1983. The available institutional identity records establish the person and profession but do not assign him to a documented movement in this source set. Indexed work titles point to painting and recurring natural subjects: carp, crabs, ducks, crows, eagles, cats, willow trees, cabbage, pond edges, and water plants. Collectors may therefore encounter his name in connection with bird, animal, aquatic, plant, and waterside compositions, although the source pack does not document the technique, support, or period of individual objects. Variant Romanizations and Chinese-character cataloguing are especially relevant when matching auction records to the correct artist. Appraisily treats the authority identifiers and alternate names as the core of this entity record while avoiding unsupported stylistic classifications.

## Common works and media

Authority-linked work titles include At the Pond’s Edge, Bird and Willow, Cabbage, Carp, Cat, Crabs and Water Weed, Crow, Duck at the Bank of a Pond, and Eagle Perched on a Rock. Together, these titles indicate paintings featuring birds, fish, animals, plants, vegetables, and pond or waterside settings. The source pack does not establish whether commonly traded examples use ink, watercolor, oil, printmaking, editions, or another specific format.

## Market and appraisal context

Appraisal begins with identity matching because this artist appears under several Romanized forms and a Chinese name. For market comparison, records should be searched across those variants and checked against public sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots. The source pack supports paintings and a range of natural subjects, but it does not provide lot-level evidence for dimensions, technique, condition, provenance, signatures, dates, or edition status. Those object-specific facts should be established from the work and its documentation before a valuation is made. Subject matter may help organize comparisons, particularly birds, animals, fish, plants, and waterside scenes, but no price trend or subject premium can be inferred from the collected sources alone.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine researched artist identities with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Each object still requires independent review of attribution and physical characteristics.
