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: Meeting of St. Ursula and the Pope in Rome Description An account of the resource This canvas is a part of Carpaccio's St. Ursula series, coming directly after the Dream of St. Ursula and prior to her arrival in Cologne. St. Ursula, wearing a blue dress near the center of the painting, kneels next to her fiance, looking up at the Pope. To the left of them comes a long line of the virgins who traveled with the group, while to the right are bishops and dignitaries. Behind them rises the city of Rome. It is unlikely that this event truly occurred, but instead is included in a solely ecclesial way. It is interesting that in nearly every canvas, though Ursula is included she is not the largest or most central figure. She is quite centered in this canvas, but kneels in reverence to the pope. This lack of focus on the title character of the works is a very interesting detail.
