"Saint Sebastian" is a painting by the Italian Baroque master Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, believed to have been created around 1610. The artwork depicts the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, a popular subject in religious art due to his dramatic martyrdom and the powerful themes of faith and perseverance associated with his story. Caravaggio's interpretation of Saint Sebastian is notable for its realistic portrayal of the human form and the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs strong contrasts between light and dark to achieve a sense of volume and depth.

In the painting, Saint Sebastian is typically shown bound to a tree or post, his body pierced by arrows, a reference to the manner of his attempted execution. Caravaggio's rendition of the scene is distinguished by its intense emotional resonance and the physicality of the saint's suffering. The artist's focus on naturalism and the stark depiction of pain diverges from the idealized representations commonly found in the works of his predecessors and contemporaries.

The exact whereabouts of Caravaggio's "Saint Sebastian" are currently unknown, and the painting's existence is primarily known through historical records and references in literature. Due to the lack of visual evidence, the painting's composition, technique, and stylistic elements are subjects of scholarly conjecture, based on Caravaggio's known body of work and the artistic trends of the period.

As with many of Caravaggio's works, "Saint Sebastian" is presumed to have had a significant impact on the development of Baroque art, influencing a generation of artists with its dramatic realism and emotional intensity. The painting's presumed loss has not diminished its importance in the study of Caravaggio's oeuvre and its contribution to the evolution of Western art.
