19th C. Italian Oil on Canvas Painting, 'Departure of the Guests', F. Beda
About the Item
A Very Large and Quite Impressive 19th C. Italian Oil on Canvas Painting, 'Departure of the Guests', F. Beda. The oil painting Departure of the Guests, signed by Francesco Beda, captures a lively farewell scene on the grand staircase of an opulent estate. Elegantly dressed men and women in early 19th-century attire engage in conversation and gestures of parting, their interactions conveying a sense of movement and emotion. A woman in a flowing pink gown stands apart, raising a handkerchief as if bidding a final goodbye, while another in gold appears to be adjusting her gloves or jewelry.
To the left, a trio of women descends the staircase, one lifting her white dress slightly to step forward, another in red carrying a lace-trimmed parasol. Behind them, a group of guests lingers near the balustrade, exchanging words and glances. A couple at the far end of the scene stands close together, the man pointing as if giving parting directions or urging his companion to look toward something in the distance. Further back, architectural domes rise above the treetops, anchoring the setting in an elegant garden or courtyard.
The painting is signed "F. Beda" in red pigment in the lower right corner. It is executed on a stretched canvas and housed in its original gilded frame, which features raised floral and foliate motifs along its edges and corners.

Francesco Beda
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.
