A top price for Micha Bar-Am - as previously expected
The work Father Neophitus, Santa Katerina Monastery, Sinai by Micha Bar-Am was sold in the Israeli & International Art auction at Sothebys in New York in December 2015. The price achieved of USD 4,750.00 (€ 4,374.25) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 4,000.00 – 6,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, Father Neophitus, Santa Katerina Monastery, Sinai is the most expensive artwork by Micha Bar-Am that we have observed at auctions so far.
