compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Amos Yaskil was born in Haifa, Israel in 1935 to a German mother and Polish father. At the age of 10, he began painting in what was described as a "wholly adult style," recognized by some critics as sensational. The author Arnold Zweig, having noticed his talent, interviewed Amos at length for a British newspaper. Superlatives such as "the Mozart-like, wonder-child-of-painting" and "young genius" were used repeatedly to describe the then 13 year-old Yaskil.
