In this connection, the artist’s wide-ranging themes encompass the history of ancient Rome and Venice as well as the tales of eminent historical beings and figures with fascinating personalities and journeys such as Casanova, Caesar, Cleopatra, Nero, and many more.
Letizia reiterates “In my Venice series, I want to show a less well-known image of this wonderful city, an image that has not been painted during the centuries. I am a little ironic and playful, but so is this city too, always different, and incomprehensible. Everything revolves around the gondolas that have grown into half-human beings. I also wanted to show my love and humility for this wonderful city.”
“My Rome series tells the story about the Majestic Capital of the old, the Lost World with her glamorous palaces, great emperors and the common people. This tale is about the Eternal City that is nowadays just as colourful, pulsating, majestic and eternal as it ever was.”
Noted Art Critic Giampaolo Trotta sums up her artistic oeuvre perfectly: “Her works show us that the invisible world can become visible thanks to the magic of colours that sing and dance in absolute freedom…The creatures that soar in her paintings bring the world of everyday happiness and sweetness of poetry, as well as a certain degree of velvety irony and are infused in the magical value of myth.”
