"Saint Sebastian" is a renowned Baroque painting by the Italian artist Guido Reni, created circa 1615. The artwork depicts the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, who was a popular subject in art due to his dramatic story and the symbolic significance of his suffering. Reni's interpretation of Saint Sebastian is celebrated for its combination of spiritual intensity and classical beauty, which reflects the Counter-Reformation ideals of the period.

The painting portrays the young saint tied to a tree, his body gracefully arched as he looks heavenward, a common motif that emphasizes his faith and steadfastness in the face of persecution. Saint Sebastian is shown at the moment of his martyrdom, pierced by arrows, which was his initial sentence for being a Christian under the Roman Emperor Diocletian. Reni's mastery of chiaroscuro – the contrast between light and dark – is evident in the way the saint's luminous skin stands out against the dark background, highlighting his form and the expression of divine rapture on his face.

Guido Reni's "Saint Sebastian" is often noted for its idealized beauty and emotional resonance, which were hallmarks of the artist's mature style. The painting's composition and the elegance of the figure draw inspiration from classical sculpture, while the emotional impact is a testament to Reni's ability to convey complex spiritual narratives through art. The work has been influential in the canon of Christian iconography and remains an important example of Baroque religious painting.

The original painting is housed in the Capitoline Museums in Rome, Italy, and has been the subject of extensive art historical study. Its influence extends beyond the realm of art, having inspired literature, music, and popular culture, attesting to the enduring legacy of Reni's interpretation of the martyrdom of Saint Sebastian.
