CRITICS ON SBRANA THE PAINTER
“He is a sunny painter, a painter of bright mixtures, of immediate solutions, of sudden horizons that open up on typically Tuscan hills. Sbrana’s painting reads by itself, it speaks of a world that surrounds us, of ancient things, of flavors paired with things.”

(Bruno Cosignani)

“Sbrana distills for us his liqueur, the elixir of good things.”

(Raffaello Bertoli)
