EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Dream of St. Ursula, 1495" transports us back to the Renaissance era and invites us into a world filled with mystery and spirituality. Painted by Vittore Carpaccio, this tempera on canvas artwork is part of a larger cycle depicting the Legend of St. Ursula for the Scola di Sant Orsola. In this particular scene, we witness St. Ursula peacefully sleeping in her four-poster bed adorned with a vibrant red bedspread. Bathed in soft light streaming through stained glass windows, she appears ethereal as an angel hovers above her head, gently placing a crown upon it. As we delve deeper into the details, we are captivated by the intricate decoration of the bedroom furniture and the serene expression on St. Ursula's face as she dreams. It is said that during this dream, she receives a divine message from God - perhaps foreshadowing her future martyrdom. Carpaccio's attention to detail and his ability to capture both physical beauty and spiritual symbolism make this artwork truly remarkable. The composition draws us into St. Ursula's inner world while also reminding us of our own connection to something greater than ourselves. Displayed at Galleria dell Accademia in Venice, Italy, this masterpiece continues to inspire awe and contemplation centuries after its creation.
