Pompeo Marino Molmenti

Pompeo Marino Molmenti (8 November 1819 in Villanova in Motta di Livenza – 17 December 1894 in Venice) was an Italian painter.

One of his early patrons was Count Spiridione Papadopoli (1799–1859) and his wife, Teresa Mosconi, who owned a villa in Villanova, not far from Molmenti's birthplace.

During this time he drew many Arab subjects, and painted The Departure of Tobias with Rachel from the House of Laban for his patron Count Papadopoli and Sara gives Agar as wife to Abraham.

He painted an Immaculate Conception for Malo near Vicenza; a Martyrdom of Santa Filomena for Vidor; a San Rocco for a church of Palmanova; and Jesus gives the key to St Peter for Fontanelle.

[7] In 1853 he exhibited a painting on the subject of Pia de' Tolomei, commissioned by the architect Count Giacomo Franco [it] and now in the Museo Civico di Castelvecchio.
