"St. Ursula Shrine: Departure from Basle (Scene 4)" is a panel painting by the Early Netherlandish artist Hans Memling, completed in 1489 as part of a larger work known as the St. Ursula Shrine. The shrine, commissioned by the Hospital of St. John in Bruges, is a reliquary that houses the relics of St. Ursula and is one of Memling's most celebrated works. The "Departure from Basle" is the fourth scene in a series of six narrative panels that adorn the sides of the shrine, each illustrating the legendary journey of St. Ursula and her companions.

This particular panel depicts the moment when St. Ursula, the Christian princess, and her retinue of virgins leave the city of Basle, Switzerland, on their pilgrimage to Rome. Memling's mastery of detail is evident in the architectural elements, the figures' luxurious garments, and the serene landscape that provides the backdrop for the scene. The panel is characterized by its harmonious composition and the delicate handling of color and light, which contribute to the tranquil yet solemn atmosphere of the departure.

Memling's work on the St. Ursula Shrine is notable for its blend of Gothic and Renaissance stylistic elements, showcasing the transition in European art during the late 15th century. The "Departure from Basle" is a prime example of this synthesis, combining the intricate detail and symbolism of the Gothic tradition with the emerging interest in perspective and naturalism of the Renaissance.

The St. Ursula Shrine, including the "Departure from Basle" panel, remains housed in the Memling Museum within the Old St. John's Hospital in Bruges, Belgium, where it continues to be an object of veneration and a testament to Memling's artistic legacy.
