"San Sebastiano curato da Irene e da una pia donna" (Saint Sebastian Cared for by Irene and a Pious Woman) is a Baroque painting by the Italian artist Antonio Zanchi, created in the latter half of the 17th century. Zanchi, a painter from Venice, was known for his dramatic and expressive style, which was influenced by the works of great masters such as Tintoretto and Veronese. This particular work depicts the popular hagiographical subject of Saint Sebastian, a Christian martyr and saint, who, according to legend, was rescued and healed by Saint Irene of Rome after being shot with arrows.

The painting is characterized by its dynamic composition, rich color palette, and the intense emotional expressions of the figures. Zanchi's use of chiaroscuro—a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark—enhances the three-dimensionality of the forms and adds to the overall dramatic effect. The central figure of Saint Sebastian is typically shown bound to a tree or post, his body pierced by arrows, while Irene, often accompanied by a servant or a pious woman, tends to his wounds.

"San Sebastiano curato da Irene e da una pia donna" reflects the Counter-Reformation themes prevalent in the art of the period, emphasizing the piety and compassion of the saints, the triumph of faith, and the glorification of martyrdom. The painting not only serves as a religious icon but also showcases Zanchi's skill in portraying human emotion and physical suffering, as well as his ability to create a narrative that resonates with the viewer.

While the exact date of creation and the current location of the painting may not be well-documented, "San Sebastiano curato da Irene e da una pia donna" remains an important work within Zanchi's oeuvre, exemplifying the artistic trends of the Venetian Baroque and contributing to the rich cultural heritage of 17th-century Italian painting.
