Francesco Beda Art

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.

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.

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...
