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 Meeting of the Betrothed Couple & Departure of the Pilgrims Description An account of the resource The Meeting of the Betrothed Couple and the Departure of the Pilgrims is a painting in Vittore Carpaccio's St. Ursula Cycle. Vittore Carpaccio, born in Venice in a family of sea men, learned under Gentile Bellini. He morphed into his own style, portraying and narrating religious scene through paintings. The collection focused on the life and legacy of St. Ursula through all stages, but set in Venice. It was funded by the scuola piccola of Sant' Orsola, which included a diverse membership from all of Venice, including artisans and merchants. According to Elizabeth Rodini, the cycle of St. Ursula dives into the role and complexities of the institution of marriage during this time in Italy [1]. Carpaccio critiques the nature of marriage and how it overly defined the citizens of Venice. Carpaccio depicts in the Meeting of the Betrothed Couple & Departure of the Pilgrims a scene of traditional Venetian betrothal practices. The hair maintanence along with the traveling in gondolas is synonomous with Venice’s wedding practices. The image contains a variety of stories of St. Ursula’s relationship to Prince Etherius, as they are betrothed to one another, then get married, then bid her father goodbye as they embark on their journey. This story, yet set in England, is depicted in the marine city of Venice, Carpaccio’s homeland. This is due to his devotion to the city, which he incorperates into his artworks. Carpaccio utilizes the narrative of St. Ursula to depict the power matrimony has, as marriages impact social status.
