$ 750.00

Sandu Liberman titled (Mother and Child) Hand-signed Artist’s Proof Lithograph: This poignant lithograph by renowned artist Sandu Liberman (Romanian–Israeli, 1923–1977) captures the timeless bond of maternal love with sensitivity and grace. The composition presents a mother gently inclining her head to kiss her child, her hand tenderly resting as if to shield and protect. The child, rendered with wide, contemplative eyes, leans into the embrace, embodying both innocence and trust. Executed with Liberman’s distinctive painterly lithographic technique, the work balances expressive lines with washes of color—warm ochres and reds that highlight the figures against a soft, moody background of greys and blacks. The interplay of vibrant accents and muted tones underscores the emotional intensity of the scene while imbuing it with a universal and enduring quality. This piece is an Artist’s Proof (A/P), making it particularly desirable among collectors for its rarity. It is hand-signed in pencil by the artist on the lower right, further affirming its authenticity. Elegantly presented in a gilt, textured frame with a cream mat, the lithograph is both a moving work of art and a collectible example of Liberman’s celebrated oeuvre, where human intimacy and emotional resonance are at the forefront.

About the artist:

Sandu Liberman (1923–1977) was a Romanian-born Israeli artist celebrated for his expressive portraiture and sensitive figurative works. Born in Iași, Romania, he gained early recognition between 1946 and 1953 through numerous state exhibitions in Bucharest, and in 1952 he was awarded the gold medal at the International Art Festival in Romania. That same year, he was commissioned to illustrate a Romanian national encyclopedia and was appointed the Official Portrait Artist of Romania. In 1962, Liberman emigrated to Israel, where he continued his career and received several government commissions, including a 1965 portrait of the President of Guinea, which still hangs in the Royal Palace. Working primarily in oil on canvas and lithography, his subjects ranged from rabbis and intimate family studies to dancers, nudes, and evocative depictions of women and city life. Known for his mastery of line, tonal subtlety, and emotional depth, Liberman merged realism with lyrical sensitivity, creating works that reflect both personal intimacy and cultural heritage. He remained an influential figure in mid-20th-century Israeli art until his death in 1977.
