San Francisco from Telegraph Hill Serigraph by Marco Sassone 20th c.
Limited edition pencil signed serigraph by listed California / Canadian artist Marco Sassone. San Francisco from Telegraph Hill, circa 1985.
This is an amazing view of San Francisco from Telegraph Hill, looking East towards the Oakland Bay Bridge. Also shown in this view is the now dismantled Embarcadero Freeway. The damage from the 1989 Loma Prieta 6.9 magnitude earthquake proved to be too much for the freeway.
The color, texture and old school views of San Francisco really make this a unique vintage serigraph. Beautifully framed. Numbered edition 216/250. This is a rare and beautiful serigraph by Sassone. Known for his views of San Francisco, this is one of his best.
Print dimensions 41" x 33". The frame measures 50" x 42".

Marco Sassone
Marco Sassone, OMRI (born 1942 in Campi Bisenzio) is an Italian painter. He moved to Florence in 1954, where his interest in painting began. He studied architectural drafting at the Istituto Galileo Galilei, and sold his first works, watercolor sketches, to tourists. Sassone studied with painter Silvio Loffredo, who had been a pupil of the Austrian artist Oskar Kokoschka. These artists formed Sassone's early influences.
In November 1967, after the destructive flood that had devastated Florence, Sassone traveled to the United States where he settled in California. He moved to Laguna Beach, where he exhibited at the annual Festival of the Arts.
In the early 1980s Sassone moved his studio to San Francisco, where he encountered homelessness. He spent several years sketching the homeless people he met while observing life on the streets. This work formed the exhibition "Home on the Streets" which opened in 1994, at the Museo ItaloAmericano in San Francisco, and traveled to Los Angeles and Florence, Italy.
In 1982 Marco Sassone was Knighted by president of Italy, Sandro Pertini, into the Order to the Merit of the Italian Republic and received a gold medal award from the Italian Academy of Arts, Literature and Science. In 2005, Marco Sassone relocated to Toronto, Canada.
