"San Sebastiano Curato Dalle Pie Donne" (Saint Sebastian Cared for by Pious Women) is a notable work by the Italian Baroque painter Mattia Preti, created in the 17th century. This painting depicts the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, who, according to legend, was rescued and healed by Saint Irene and her servant after being shot with arrows. Preti's rendition of this scene is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, a hallmark of the Baroque style, which serves to emphasize the emotional intensity and spiritual fervor of the moment.

Mattia Preti (1613–1699), also known as Il Cavalier Calabrese (The Knight of Calabria), was an artist renowned for his dynamic compositions and his ability to convey deep religious themes with a sense of realism and humanity. His works often featured strong chiaroscuro and a powerful sense of movement, which are evident in "San Sebastiano Curato Dalle Pie Donne."

The painting is significant for its artistic merit and for its representation of Preti's mature style, which combined the influence of Caravaggio with his own distinctive approach to Baroque painting. The exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, but it is generally attributed to the middle or later part of Preti's career.

"San Sebastiano Curato Dalle Pie Donne" is not only an important example of Preti's work but also contributes to the broader understanding of Baroque religious art. It reflects the period's interest in dramatic narrative scenes, the exploration of human emotion, and the use of visual effects to heighten the impact of the story being told. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and is considered an important piece within Preti's oeuvre, contributing to the appreciation of 17th-century Italian art and its enduring legacy.
