Saint Ursula with Angels and Donor (detail) 1455

This detail from Benozzo Gozzoli's "Saint Ursula with Angels and Donor" (c. 1455) depicts a young angel, possibly Saint Michael, holding a banner with the inscription "SANCTA VRE," likely a shortened version of "Sancta Ursula," the patron saint of the artwork. The angel's bright green robe contrasts with the vibrant red of his wings, showcasing Gozzoli's skillful use of color and light. This detail exemplifies the artist's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to imbue his figures with a sense of spirituality and grace, characteristics that marked his prolific career from 1421 to 1497.
