Title A name given to the resource September 9: Scuole Painting Cycles Description An account of the resource Painted in 1495, Vittore Carpaccio's "Dream of Saint Ursula" is a part of his series depicting the tale of Saint Ursula, titled "Stories from the Life of Saint Ursula". "Dream of Saint Ursula" was Carpaccio's fifth painting out of a total of eight in the series, and continued his tendency to paint religious scenery. The legend of Saint Ursula from the north was very popular throughout the Middle Ages, and Carpaccio was commissioned by the Confraternity of Saint Ursula in Venice to tell her story. The legend describes Saint Ursula, a martyr who led 11,000 virgin maidens through travel, all of whom were brutally massacred by the Huns in Cologne. "The Dream of Saint Ursula" in particular depicts Saint Ursula in her bed, and is meant to show her dreaming of the angel who informs Saint Ursula of her impending death and martyrship. Carpaccio is widely praised for his close attention to detail, which he demonstrates magnificently in this painting, showing the room with beautiful ceilings, plants on the windows, a dog laying next to the bed, and the shadowy figures around the room that cast a mysterious and dreamy vibe throughout the painting.

Title A name given to the resource Legend of St. Ursula: Dream of St. Ursula Description An account of the resource The lady sleeping in the bed is an image of Princess Usrula, the daughter of King Norus of Brittany in the 5th century AD. She was very beautiful and wise which caused her to have many suitors. The King of Anglia wanted his son to marry her, so she agreed but only after a waiting period of 3 years. She decided to go on a journey to Rome to take advantage of her final time of freedom. One night where they had stopped in Cologne, she is visited by an angel as she sleeps in a bed alone. The angle reveals her future martyrdom. She converted many men to Christianity but was slain by an arrow through her heart when she returned to Cologne. Carpaccio's representation exhibits the exalted heights of art in Venice, adding to the pious narrative of the city. Carpaccio's image was created as a part of a larger cycle of painting that illustrate St. Ursula's life and journey.
