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 Dream of St. Ursula is the fifth painting of the series in the nine large paintings collection “Stories from the Life of St. Ursula” created by Vittore Carpaccio. Carpaccio has been praised for grasping each detail while still preserving the unity of the scene and its symbolic value. The painting is telling a story of St. Ursula’s dream. The angel entering St. Ursula’s dream is going to tell her the imminent martyrdom. The painting was created in a time-stopping sense with immersive details, the light shines behind the angel, a little dog laying beside her bed, the book still open where she stopped reading before falling asleep, pots by the window with carnation and plants growing in them. All those details painted the heavenly love holy atmosphere within the frame. The painting also highlights the interior classical Italian Renaissance ornaments such as the rod with red water-drop shape drapery over the bed, spherical shaped window, and all the wooden details that were used to decorate the room.
