Sandra Bierman, 1938 | Figurative painter

The magic of American painter Sandra Bierman lies in her soulful, larger-than-life figurative oil paintings that evoke an immediate sense of tranquility, strength, and emotional warmth.

Working entirely from her imagination without models or photographs, she channels what critics and collectors often describe as "pure magic" directly onto the canvas.

Her signature subjects are stylized, exaggerated women with bare, earthy feet and disproportionately large, caring hands.

These figures are deeply nurturing, often seen cradling babies, tending to plants, or holding companion cats.

Bierman approaches her canvases like an abstract painter, focusing on space, shapes, and fluid lines.

Jack Vettriano / Leonard Cohen | The Stranger song, 1967

"The Stranger Song" è uno dei brani più intensi e poeticamente complessi di Leonard Cohen, pubblicato originariamente nel 1967 come quarta traccia del suo iconico album di debutto, Songs of Leonard Cohen.

Il brano si distingue per l'ipnotico schema di fingerpicking sulla chitarra acustica e per un testo ricco di metafore legate al gioco d'azzardo, ai treni ed all'impossibilità di trovare un legame stabile.

Leonard Cohen | Winter Lady / Signora Inverno

Signora in viaggio, resta ancora un po’

finché la notte non sarà terminata

Sono solo una tappa del tuo cammino,

so che non sono il tuo amante.
