Giotto di Bondone executed this scene showing Saint Francis receiving a vision of a palace filled with arms and banners. The architectural setting demonstrates Giotto's pioneering approach to depicting three-dimensional space on a flat surface.
This fresco belongs to the Legend of Saint Francis cycle. The dream foreshadows Francis's spiritual knighthood in Christ's service. It remains at the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi.
