"The Meeting and Departure of the Betrothed, from the St. Ursula Cycle, detail of a ship" is a notable work by the Venetian Renaissance painter Vittore Carpaccio, created between 1490 and 1496. This painting is part of the larger series known as the St. Ursula Cycle, which is a collection of canvases depicting the legend of Saint Ursula, a Christian British princess who, according to medieval legend, undertook a pilgrimage across Europe before being martyred by the Huns. The cycle was commissioned for the Scuola di Sant'Orsola (School of Saint Ursula) in Venice, which was a confraternity dedicated to the saint.

The specific work in question, "The Meeting and Departure of the Betrothed," captures a pivotal moment in the narrative where Saint Ursula meets her betrothed, the pagan prince Conon of Brittany, and they set off on their voyage. The detail of a ship within this painting is significant as it illustrates the beginning of Ursula's fateful journey, which is central to the legend. Carpaccio's mastery in rendering the ship and the figures reflects the importance of maritime life in Venetian culture and the artist's attention to detail and narrative storytelling.

Carpaccio's use of vibrant colors and his ability to convey emotion and character through gesture and expression are evident in this work. The painting is also notable for its detailed depiction of contemporary Venetian ships and nautical instruments, providing a glimpse into the maritime technology of the time. The St. Ursula Cycle is considered one of Carpaccio's masterpieces and is a significant contribution to the corpus of Venetian Renaissance art. The cycle can be found today in the Gallerie dell'Accademia in Venice, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical value.
