A top price for Uri Lifshitz

This artwork by Uri Lifshitz achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in November 2009. In the Israeli and International Art auction, the work The Knight And The Dragon sold for USD 20,000.00 (€ 13,338.67) - well above the upper estimate of USD 7,000.00. This high result makes The Knight And The Dragon the most expensive artwork by Uri Lifshitz that we have observed at auctions so far.
