1923-2010

An imaginative, talented and prolific artist, Imero Gobbato created paintings, drawings, prints, carvings, models and music all his life. He is best known for his highly collected, light-filled paintings of the coastal seas. He was also a successful children’s book illustrator as well as a naval architect. As a musician he played several instruments and composed music.

All the while, his most personal endeavor was the creation of a country he imagined into existence; a place called HUMBRAVANA.
