Ta rzeźba Leopolda Gottlieba jest bardzo zaskakującym odkryciem na rynku. Chyba ani żadne z polskich muzeów nie posiada w swoich zbiorach rzeźby w wykonaniu tego artysty. Co ciekawsze, Słownik Artystów Polskich nie wspomina o rzeźbiarskiej jego działalności. Rzeźba Macierzyństwo znajduje sie w Izraelu i interesujące będzie prześledzić jej proweniencję. Nowy Rok dopiero co się zaczął a tu takie niespodziewane i duże odkrycie, nieznanego rodziału twórczości Leopolda Gottlieba.
