What does this mean?

The appraised work is an oil on canvas painting executed by Italian artist Valerio Adami (b. 1935). The work combines both abstracted and representational elements to create a Surrealist scene. Adami came to prominence in the 1960s with Nouvelle Figuration--the French equivalent to American Pop art. His paintings often explore themes related to literature, poetry and politics, and he has developed his own unique iconography that embraces Surrealism and anthropomorphism but also remains steeped in recognizable imagery and figures. The artist has exhibited throughout Europe and his work is held in prominent public and private collections. The estimate provided is based on comparables recently offered and sold at auction. Adami's oil paintings appear to be regularly offered at auction, almost exclusively at houses in Italy and Continental Europe. Overall, the results appear fairly consistent, with paintings typically selling within or above their high presale estimates, which suggests a strong and stable market. The appraised work's size (approximated based on framed dimensions provided), composition, current condition (based on photographs and information provided), as well as the artist's current auction market were taken into consideration when determining the estimate. In many cases, pricing for similar examples available on the primary (retail) market vary, and are often higher than secondary (auction) market examples.
