Marco Sassone was born in Campi Bisenzio, a Tuscan Village, in 1942. His family moved to Florence in 1954 where he followed his passion for art.
In his present day work, Sassone takes a refreshing and intimate look at some of the sites from the cities of Italy; Venice, Florence, and the Amalfi Coast. Sassone lived in Laguna Beach for many years but has returned to his homeland through his paintings. He has remained faithful to his innate genius and deeply-held convictions as an artist.
