Peer bands

Peer bands are not generated for deceased artists; contemporary peer sets intentionally exclude historical/deceased artists.

Codex reports are descriptive data summaries, not appraisals, recommendations, or investment advice. Data coverage varies by source; confirm provenance, condition, availability, representation status, and comparable pricing before external presentation or transaction decisions.
