The work shows the death of a fourth-century woman who, according to the Catholic Church, led a pilgrimage of 11,000 virgins from Britain to Rome. On the way back, while passing through the Roman settlement at Colonia Agrippina (now Cologne, Germany), the Huns besieged the area and killed the pilgrims. According to some versions of the story, the Hunnic commander promised to spare Ursula if she married him. Having gone on the initial pilgrimage to postpone her marriage to a pagan prince, Ursula refused. The commander then shot her point blank with an arrow. The story is not the most popular artistic subject, but it has been depicted by other artists, namely <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/thumb\/9\/91\/Martyrdom_of_Saint_Ursula%2C_by_Hans_Memling.jpg\/640px-Martyrdom_of_Saint_Ursula%2C_by_Hans_Memling.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Hans Memling<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> and <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/ci\/AL18g_TN4WFWDzvMfYqc9RjxEvKFLrCrGzXlmcbsJwVpgFwsBkAPFFXXkBGJc01M7elxhf0rldPLjPI=s1200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Peter Paul Rubens<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">.

Previous conservation efforts have not been particularly thorough, partly due to the work\u2019s fragile condition. However, with this more comprehensive restoration, the painting has new life breathed into it. Not only are some of the colors much brighter but there are segments of the painting that were previously obscured but are now visible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A previous bout of restorations between 2003 and 2004 revealed the outstretched arm separating the titular saint from the Hun. This time around, however, another component has been revealed. In the space between the commander and the saint, there used to be part of a helmet seemingly floating in the darkness. The cleaning job revealed more of the helmet and some of its wearer. <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/news.artnet.com\/app\/news-upload\/2025\/04\/comparison-pre-and-post-Caravaggio-restoration-1-1024x541.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">A nose and other parts of a face<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> have <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">been uncovered<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, adding another figure to the scene. Exhibition curator Maria Cristina Terzaghi remarked that even though the painting\u2019s condition has improved, it has still been irreparably damaged and is still very delicate. We may not be able to see it completely restored, but this is the best <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">it\u2019s going to<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> get for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Caravaggio 2025<\/span><\/em><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> has proven to be a massive success, with more than 60,000 tickets sold prior to its opening on March 7th.
