"Arrival of the English Ambassadors" (1495-1500) is a notable painting by the Venetian artist Vittore Carpaccio, renowned for his narrative works and detailed depiction of contemporary life. This painting is part of a series that Carpaccio created for the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni in Venice, which was dedicated to the confraternity of Dalmatian merchants and sailors. The series illustrates the lives of the patron saints of the Scuola: St. George, St. Tryphon, and St. Jerome.

The "Arrival of the English Ambassadors" specifically captures a scene from the legend of St. George, in which English envoys arrive to seek the saint's assistance against a dragon that is terrorizing their kingdom. Carpaccio's work is celebrated for its vivid storytelling and meticulous attention to the details of the period's costumes, architecture, and customs, which provide a window into the life and times of late 15th-century Venice.

The painting is executed in tempera on canvas, a medium that was becoming increasingly popular in Venice at the time, allowing for larger works than the traditional tempera on wood panels. Carpaccio's use of color and light, as well as his ability to convey the textures of different materials, are particularly admired in this piece.

"Arrival of the English Ambassadors" is considered an important work in Carpaccio's oeuvre and in the broader context of Venetian Renaissance art. It exemplifies the artist's skill in blending the grand narrative with the minutiae of everyday life, creating a scene that is both historically significant and richly detailed. The painting remains on display in its original location at the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni, now a museum, allowing visitors to experience the work in the context for which it was originally commissioned.
