This intimate lithograph by Romanian-born Israeli artist Sandu Liberman captures a serene and poetic moment of human connection. Titled “Tender Love,” the work depicts a young couple in a deeply affectionate embrace, set against a tranquil riverside landscape. The woman, cloaked in soft, flowing garments of warm amber tones, gently caresses the man’s hair as he rests peacefully against her. The lush greenery and calm waters in the background enhance the composition’s atmosphere of serenity and timeless romance.
Liberman’s refined draftsmanship and painterly sensibility are evident in the delicate modeling of the figures and the harmonious blending of colors, which lend both emotional depth and aesthetic grace to the scene.

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. See less
