Painting from photographs, Beccari seeks to translate the lighting through new chromatic compositions. His work is considered realism.

He gathers photo references for the majority of his paintings – photos taken by himself or found on stock resources such as the Pinterest (being careful about copyright). But rather than copy it directly, he seeks to translate the lights and colors into a clear and concise composition. He never appreciated “photorealism”, only the pictorial realism.
