VISION OF ST. HELENA

This image is part of the Vatican Collection. There is another version by the same artist in London, the National Gallery. It is in remarkably good condition, with a few small water stains and some discoloration on the background tapestry. We removed the spots but decided the stains and related marks were so slight you would not mind.

Veronese used the clothing style of his period, with its rich fabrics, to adorn the Saint. Her dream to find the Cross has just come true in this charming picture, as the little cherub has brought it to her before she awakes.
