This artwork by Yosl Bergner achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in New York in December 2015. In the Israeli & International Art auction, the work Wooden Horse sold for USD 75,000.00 (€ 69,067.13) - well above the upper estimate of USD 40,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Yosl Bergner - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Kushan (The Deed), which sold at auction in December 2018 for USD 162,500.00 (€ 141,847.07).

Oberer Schätzpreis um 88 % übertroffen
