The St. Ursula Shrine Medallions 2 are part of a series of works by the Early Netherlandish painter Hans Memling, created as part of the larger St. Ursula Shrine, which is considered one of his masterpieces. The shrine, commissioned by the Hospital of St. John in Bruges, was completed in 1489 and is a reliquary dedicated to Saint Ursula, a legendary Romano-British Christian saint. The medallions are a series of painted panels that adorn the shrine, depicting scenes from the life and martyrdom of St. Ursula and her companions.

Hans Memling, active during the latter half of the 15th century, was known for his detailed and serene compositions, which combined the influences of his mentor Rogier van der Weyden with the rich color and texture characteristic of the Bruges school. The St. Ursula Shrine Medallions 2 are exemplary of Memling's skill in narrative painting and his ability to infuse his religious subjects with a sense of humanity and grace.

The medallions are notable for their intricate detail and use of color, as well as their blend of Gothic and Renaissance stylistic elements. Each panel is a miniature tableau, rich with architectural and natural elements that create a sense of depth and space. The scenes are carefully composed to convey the story of St. Ursula, who, according to legend, was a British princess who, along with 11,000 virgin companions, undertook a pilgrimage across Europe before being martyred by the Huns.

The St. Ursula Shrine, including the Medallions 2, is housed in the Hans Memling Museum, part of the Old St. John's Hospital complex in Bruges, Belgium. The shrine is a key example of the devotional art of the period and offers insight into the religious practices and artistic achievements of the late medieval period in Northern Europe. The St. Ursula Shrine Medallions 2 remain an important part of Hans Memling's oeuvre, reflecting both the spiritual fervor and the artistic sophistication of the time.
