"Saint Sebastian Attended by Saint Irene" is a painting by the Spanish artist Jusepe de Ribera, created in the 1620s. Ribera, known for his dramatic use of chiaroscuro and realistic depiction of human figures, was a prominent figure in the Baroque movement. This work exemplifies his mastery in portraying intense emotion and physical suffering.

The painting depicts the aftermath of the martyrdom of Saint Sebastian, a Christian saint and martyr who was tied to a post and shot with arrows. In this composition, Saint Sebastian is shown in a vulnerable state, having survived the initial attempt on his life. Saint Irene, a figure of compassion and care, is depicted tending to his wounds. This scene is significant as it highlights themes of mercy and healing amidst suffering.

Ribera's use of light and shadow is particularly notable in this work. The dramatic lighting focuses on the figures of Sebastian and Irene, creating a stark contrast with the dark background. This technique not only emphasizes the physical forms but also enhances the emotional intensity of the scene. The expressions and gestures of the figures convey a sense of urgency and tenderness, drawing the viewer into the narrative.

The painting reflects Ribera's interest in human anatomy and his ability to convey complex emotions through detailed facial expressions and body language. His realistic approach and attention to detail are evident in the textures of the skin and fabrics, adding to the overall impact of the work.

"Saint Sebastian Attended by Saint Irene" is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, Spain. It remains an important example of Ribera's contribution to Baroque art and his ability to blend realism with dramatic storytelling. The painting continues to be studied for its artistic techniques and its portrayal of themes of suffering, compassion, and redemption.
