## About Yehiel Krize

Yehiel Krize (1909–1968) was an Israeli painter born in Poland. Authority records firmly support his identity, life years, national context, and occupation, but the collected sources provide limited institution-grade detail about his training, exhibitions, or artistic chronology. A Hebrew-language overview connects his abstract tendency with artists associated with New Horizons while also stating that he was never formally a member; this connection is therefore best treated as provisional rather than as a settled movement classification. Collectors are most likely to encounter Krize through paintings and auction records filed under fine-art categories, with some matched records assigned to broader works-on-paper, print, mixed-media, or edition groupings. His name may also appear as Yechiel Krize or in Hebrew. Secure identification should compare the artist's name variants and life dates with signatures, inscriptions, provenance, medium, and evidence attached to the individual work.

## Common works and media

Painting is the work type most securely supported by the collected identity authorities. Appraisily's auction taxonomy also places matched records in works on paper and prints, sculpture and mixed media, and decorative art and editions, but those broader labels have not been confirmed as representative parts of Krize's practice. Each auction object should therefore be checked individually for medium, support, technique, dimensions, signature, inscriptions, edition status, and attribution wording.

## Market and appraisal context

Krize's public auction evidence should be interpreted cautiously. The data-basis section of Appraisily's collected page reports 18 matched records, including 8 priced records, from 2014 through 2026 and an observed range of $130 to $480. The same page also displays an incompatible introductory summary claiming no tracked lots, so those figures require reconciliation before they are used as decision-grade market statistics. For appraisal, compare like with like: medium, dimensions, date, condition, restoration, signature or inscriptions, provenance, exhibition and catalogue history, attribution confidence, subject, and recent comparable public sales can all affect relevance. The reported range describes collected observations, not a forecast or a substitute for inspecting the specific work.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine artist-identity research with matched public auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Record counts, attribution, and price fields should be reconciled when a source page contains conflicting summaries.
