This print captures a moment from the renowned painting "Cycle of the life of Saint Ursula: the dream of Saint Ursula" by Vittore Carpaccio. Created in 1498, this masterpiece is housed in the Gallerie dell Accademia in Venice, Italy. In this particular scene, we witness Saint Ursula peacefully asleep in her bedroom. As she rests, an angel appears before her to deliver a profound message - a premonition of her impending death.
