"The Arrival of the English Ambassadors" is a painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Vittore Carpaccio, created in 1498 as part of the St. Ursula Cycle. This series of canvases was commissioned for the Scuola di Sant'Orsola (School of St. Ursula) in Venice and is dedicated to the legend of Saint Ursula, a Christian martyr from the 4th century. Carpaccio's work is renowned for its vivid narrative and meticulous attention to detail, characteristics that are exemplified in this particular painting.

The painting depicts the moment when the ambassadors from England arrive at the court of the Christian king Maurus of Brittany to ask for the hand of his daughter, Ursula, in marriage to the pagan English prince. Carpaccio's composition is rich with the opulence and pageantry of the event, showcasing a variety of characters in contemporary Venetian dress, which provides a glimpse into the fashion and customs of the time. The artist's use of perspective and his ability to capture the textures of different materials, from the luxurious garments to the architectural elements, contribute to the painting's reputation as a masterpiece of early Venetian Renaissance art.

"The Arrival of the English Ambassadors" is celebrated for its historical value as well as its artistic merit, offering insight into the cultural and social milieu of Venice at the turn of the 16th century. The work is part of a cycle that was originally housed in the Scuola di Sant'Orsola but is now on display at the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, allowing the public to appreciate Carpaccio's storytelling prowess and his contribution to the Venetian art scene.
