"Constantine's Dream (detail)" is a fresco by the Italian Renaissance master Piero della Francesca, painted around 1455. The work is part of a series of frescoes that adorn the walls of the Basilica of San Francesco in the town of Arezzo, Italy. This particular fresco is one of a cycle known as the "Legend of the True Cross," which narrates the story of the wood from the Garden of Eden eventually becoming the cross on which Jesus Christ was crucified, and its rediscovery by Saint Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine.

The detail of "Constantine's Dream" depicts a pivotal moment in the legend: the night before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, Constantine I is said to have dreamt of a cross in the sky with the words "In this sign, conquer," leading him to adopt the symbol for his army's standards and ultimately to his conversion to Christianity. Piero della Francesca's rendering of the dream is celebrated for its serene and contemplative atmosphere, masterful use of perspective, and the harmonious integration of the figures within the architectural setting.

Piero's work on the fresco cycle was commissioned by the wealthy Bacci family and is considered one of his masterpieces, showcasing his skill in the use of perspective and light to create a sense of three-dimensionality. The frescoes are also notable for their historical significance, as they reflect the humanist interests of the Renaissance period, combining religious themes with a deep appreciation for classical antiquity.

The "Constantine's Dream" fresco has been extensively studied for its artistic and iconographic content, and it remains an important work for scholars interested in the development of Renaissance art and the use of narrative in fresco cycles. The fresco has been preserved and can still be viewed in situ in the Basilica of San Francesco, attracting art historians and tourists alike.
