Vision of Saint Eustace (or Saint Hubert)
Pinturicchio sets the famous hunting vision—told of Saint Eustace or Saint Hubert—in a lyrical landscape. The armored rider halts; hounds circle; a stag confronts him bearing a small crucifix in its antlers. Jewel-toned costume, delicate trees, and crisp gold details turn a moment of inward change into an elegant, legible scene.
