"Arrival of St. Ursula during the Siege of Cologne" is a notable painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Vittore Carpaccio, created in 1498 as part of the larger St. Ursula Cycle. This cycle of paintings was commissioned for the Scuola di Sant'Orsola (School of Saint Ursula) in Venice and is dedicated to the life and legend of Saint Ursula, a British princess who, according to medieval legend, undertook a pilgrimage across Europe before being martyred by the Huns in Cologne.

The painting in question depicts a critical moment in the hagiographic narrative: the arrival of Saint Ursula at Cologne, where she and her companions are besieged by the Huns. Carpaccio's work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and its vibrant storytelling, which brings the drama and piety of the saint's legend to life. The artist's use of color, composition, and perspective reflects the influence of the Venetian School and contributes to the narrative's emotional impact.

Measuring 280 cm by 255 cm, the painting is a large-scale work that combines elements of both religious devotion and historical recreation. Carpaccio's depiction of architecture, costume, and the various figures in the scene provides a rich tapestry that captures the viewer's imagination and offers insight into the cultural and artistic milieu of late 15th-century Venice.

The "Arrival of St. Ursula during the Siege of Cologne" is celebrated for its artistic merit and its role in the broader St. Ursula Cycle, which is considered one of Carpaccio's masterpieces. Today, the painting is housed in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and its exemplary representation of Renaissance art.
