Letizia Cortini reveals in herself a born pleasurable attitude for soft colours, the moving images, give a dreaming atmosphere. Her love for landscapes is not only a way of dreaming but also a strong desire to unveil a part of the mistery of the universe. The painter's creativity discovers a scenographic relationship between reality and fantasy. [...] Her pictoric themes often are shown simple, fresh and genuine, celebrating an estraordinary beauty and variety of nature. In other occasions her landscapes seem to enlarge and to narrow under a multitude of colours and lights in spaces which are invented by the artist but at the sime time are real.

Italo Marucci, 1990

Letizia Cortini knows how to use oil and water colours and is able to reveal in a limpid and lyrical way a world of transparent soft tonalities. Sometimes she uses dense, luminous and energetic swipes of the brush to almost make a "Lost Paradise" for whom has eyes to look and to find it.

Silvestro Bracci, 1993
