Francesco Beda Figurative Paintings
Italian, 1840-1900
Francesco Beda was an Italian genre painter born in Trieste on 29th November 1840. His son Giulio (1879–1942) was also a talented artist. Beda’s proximity to the Austro-Hungarian Empire led him to study art in Vienna under Karl von Blaas (1815–94) who initially influenced his subject matter towards portraits and historical subjects. After completing his studies, he worked in Trieste but also traveled across Austria, Hungary and Croatia painting commissions for wealthy patrons such as Empress Elisabeth of Austria, the Prince of Rolian, and Bishop Strossmayer of Zagreb. By 1876, the taste for historical scenes that harked back to a golden era had emerged across Europe and Beda began to produce meticulously painted works of ladies and gentlemen in fine costumes set against opulent surroundings. He died in Trieste on 21st June 1900. Examples of Beda’s works can be found in the Trieste Museum.

Description:

Francesco Beda (1840-1900) was an Italian painter celebrated for his exquisite genre scenes and historical subjects. Born in Italy, Beda displayed a natural talent for art from a young age and received formal training in painting. He developed a distinctive style characterized by meticulous attention to detail, vibrant colors, and a keen eye for capturing the essence of his subjects.
One of Beda’s notable oil paintings is titled “Musical Interlude.” This masterpiece measures 24×36″ and bears the artist’s signature. The painting showcases Beda’s exceptional skill in depicting textures, colors, and architectural details with stunning realism.
In “Musical Interlude,” Beda transports the viewer to a scene of musical entertainment in the 19th century. The bold and vibrant colors of the dresses and period-style clothing evoke the richness and elegance of the time. Beda’s attention to fabric texture allows the viewer to almost feel the weight and flow of the garments through their eyes.
The interior architecture depicted in the painting reveals Beda’s mastery in capturing delicate details. The beautifully painted marble column and intricately carved wood chair...

Sleeping Girls - contemporary, figurative, portrait, acrylic, oil on board
By Daniel Hughes
Located in Bloomfield, ON
This realistic painting, a portrait of children, is by internationally recognized artist Daniel Hughes.
Daniel Hughes is known best perhaps for his true-to-life figurative paintings. Early in his life, Hughes was strongly influenced by the work of his artist mother and her friends, many of whom were renowned British artists.
He grew up drawing…never in color books but on six-foot lengths of computer paper. Hughes was especially drawn to the figurative paintings of British artists of the 1950s. His aesthetic focuses on a realistic interpretation, composition, light, harmony, and emotion. Hughes' work, like this acrylic and charcoal painting of two little girls sleeping...
