Painting Description
"St George and the Dragon (detail 2) 1502" is a notable work by the Italian Renaissance painter Vittore Carpaccio. Created in 1502, this artwork forms part of a larger series that depicts the legend of Saint George, a Christian martyr who became widely venerated as a military saint in the Middle Ages. The series was commissioned for the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni in Venice, which was a confraternity for the Dalmatian community in the city.
This particular detail from the series captures a pivotal moment in the narrative where Saint George, mounted on horseback, confronts the dragon threatening the princess and her city. Carpaccio's rendering is celebrated for its dynamic composition and vivid portrayal of the dramatic encounter. The painting is executed with meticulous attention to the textures and colors, characteristic of Carpaccio's style, which combines Gothic elements with the emerging features of the Venetian Renaissance.
"St George and the Dragon (detail 2)" is significant not only for its artistic merits but also for its cultural and historical context. It reflects the themes of heroism and virtue, resonating with the ideals of the Scuola's patrons. Today, the work is housed in the Scuola di San Giorgio degli Schiavoni in Venice, where it continues to attract scholars and admirers, contributing to our understanding of Venetian art and the broader narrative traditions of Saint George.
