"St. Sebastian" (1474) is a notable early Renaissance painting by the Italian master Sandro Botticelli. This artwork, created using tempera on panel, depicts the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, who was a popular subject in art due to his calm acceptance of suffering and his appeal as a protector against the plague. Botticelli's rendition of the saint is characterized by its elegance and the delicate modeling of the figure, which reflects the influence of his teacher, Filippo Lippi, and the sculptural qualities reminiscent of the works of Antonio Pollaiuolo.

In the painting, Saint Sebastian is shown tied to a tree, a traditional representation of his martyrdom, where he was shot with arrows by Roman soldiers. Despite the violence of the act, Sebastian's expression is serene and his body exhibits the idealized beauty typical of Botticelli's figures. The landscape in the background is rendered with a sense of depth and naturalism that was becoming increasingly prominent in Florentine art of the time.

The work measures 195 cm by 75 cm and is currently housed in the Staatliche Museen in Berlin, Germany. "St. Sebastian" is an important piece in Botticelli's oeuvre as it showcases his early development as an artist and his ability to convey complex human emotions and spiritual themes through his refined and graceful style. The painting is also significant for its historical context, as it was created during a period when Florence was experiencing a resurgence of interest in classical antiquity, which influenced the humanistic approach to religious subjects in art.

Botticelli's "St. Sebastian" is not only a testament to the artist's technical skill and aesthetic sensibilities but also provides insight into the cultural and religious milieu of 15th-century Florence. It remains an enduring example of the early Renaissance's capacity to blend devotional content with the emerging humanist ideals and artistic innovations of the period.
