"St. Sebastian 2" by Jusepe de Ribera is a notable work by the Spanish Tenebrist painter, known for his dramatic use of light and shadow and his intense, realistic portrayals of religious subjects. This painting depicts Saint Sebastian, a popular Christian saint and martyr, who is traditionally shown tied to a tree and shot with arrows. Ribera's rendition is particularly remarkable for its vivid depiction of pain and suffering, which is a characteristic theme in his oeuvre.

Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera or Lo Spagnoletto, was active during the early 17th century and spent most of his career in Naples, then part of the Spanish Empire. His works are often noted for their stark realism, attention to detail, and the psychological depth of their subjects. "St. Sebastian 2" exemplifies Ribera's skill in using chiaroscuro to enhance the emotional intensity of the scene, focusing on the saint's resilience and spiritual fervor amidst his torment.

The painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allowed Ribera to achieve rich textures and deep color contrasts. The composition centers on the figure of Sebastian, whose body is both a landscape of suffering and a symbol of faith. The arrows puncturing his flesh not only recount the story of his martyrdom but also serve as a metaphor for spiritual testing and endurance.

"St. Sebastian 2" is held in high regard not only for its artistic excellence but also for its contribution to the Baroque period's exploration of themes such as martyrdom, faith, and the human condition. Ribera's work remains influential in the study of Spanish Baroque art and continues to be admired for its emotional power and technical mastery.
