Paolo Uccello - St. George and the Dragon, about 1460, 56 x 74 cm. This picture shows two episodes from the story of St. George: his defeat of a plague-bearing dragon that had been terrorizing a city; and the rescued princess bringing the dragon to heel (with her belt as a leash). In the sky, a storm is gathering. The eye of the storm lines up with St. George's lance, suggesting that divine intervention has helped him to victory. Uccello uses the lance to emphasize the angle from which St. George attacks the dragon, helping to establish a three-dimensional space.
