"Dream of St. Hugh, Bishop of Grenoble" is a significant modello created by the Italian Baroque painter Vincenzo Carducci between 1626 and 1632. This preparatory work served as a conceptual blueprint for a larger painting housed at the School of Fine Art in La Coruña, Spain. Vincenzo Carducci, also known as Vincenzo Carducho, was an influential artist of the early 17th century, renowned for his contributions to the Spanish Baroque movement. Born in Florence in 1576, Carducci moved to Spain where he became a prominent figure in the court of King Philip III and King Philip IV.

The modello depicts a visionary moment in the life of St. Hugh, the Bishop of Grenoble, a revered figure in the Catholic Church known for his piety and reformative zeal. St. Hugh, who lived from 1053 to 1132, was instrumental in the Gregorian Reforms and played a crucial role in the foundation of the Carthusian Order. The painting captures the ethereal and spiritual essence of St. Hugh's dream, a divine revelation that guided his ecclesiastical mission.

Carducci's work is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, a hallmark of the Baroque style, which enhances the mystical atmosphere of the scene. The composition is meticulously arranged to draw the viewer's eye towards the central figure of St. Hugh, who is portrayed in a state of serene contemplation. Surrounding him are angelic figures and symbolic elements that underscore the divine nature of his vision.

The modello not only demonstrates Carducci's technical prowess but also his deep understanding of religious iconography and narrative. It serves as an invaluable piece for art historians and enthusiasts, offering insight into the preparatory processes of Baroque painters and the thematic preoccupations of the period. The larger painting, for which this modello was created, remains a testament to Carducci's enduring legacy and his contribution to the artistic heritage of Spain.
