Monograph: Marco Sasssone

Monograph
“If Sassone’s Italian paintings seem most often to have the quality of worn and faded renaissance brocade, his California subjects can be compared to cut and polished gems shot through with sunlight…” So writes art historian Donelson Hoopes in the volume titled Sassone. Well over a hundred of Sassone’s oil paintings and watercolors are featured in this book. Introduction by Dean Charles Speroni, U.C.L.A. Text by Donelson F. Hoopes. Published Spring 1980.
