"San Sebastián atendido por Santa Irene y una esclava" (Saint Sebastian Tended by Saint Irene and a Maid) is a significant baroque painting created by the Dutch painter Matthias Stom (or Stomer), dated between 1640 and 1650. This artwork is part of Stom's oeuvre during his time in Southern Italy, where he was notably influenced by the local artistic scene, particularly by Caravaggio's dramatic use of chiaroscuro and the intense emotional expressions found in his subjects. Matthias Stom, who was active during the early to mid-17th century, is renowned for his adeptness in capturing the interplay of light and shadow, and this painting stands as a testament to his mastery in portraying religious themes with a profound sense of realism and depth.

The painting depicts the moment Saint Irene, accompanied by a maid, tends to the wounds of Saint Sebastian, who was a popular Christian saint and martyr. According to legend, Sebastian was tied to a tree and shot with arrows; however, he survived, and Saint Irene is often depicted in art as attending to his wounds. Stom's rendition of this scene is remarkable for its emotional intensity and the meticulous attention to detail, from the textures of the fabrics to the expressions of compassion and suffering on the figures' faces. The use of light not only highlights the central figures, enhancing their spiritual and physical ordeal but also serves to draw the viewer into the narrative, creating a connection that transcends the canvas.

"San Sebastián atendido por Santa Irene y una esclava" is a prime example of Stom's contributions to the Baroque movement, reflecting the period's fascination with dramatic themes and the exploration of human emotion under divine influence. The painting is not only a showcase of Stom's technical skill and stylistic influences but also provides insight into the religious and cultural context of the 17th century. It remains an important work for scholars studying the Baroque period, the influence of Caravaggism, and the historical depiction of saints in art.
