"Święty Sebastian" (Saint Sebastian) is a woodcut print created by the Polish artist Władysław Skoczylas (1883–1934). Skoczylas, renowned for his contributions to the Polish arts and crafts movement, often drew upon historical and folk themes to create his works. This particular print depicts Saint Sebastian, a Christian saint and martyr, who is commonly portrayed in art bound to a tree or post and shot with arrows.

The woodcut medium, which involves carving an image into a wooden block, printing it with ink, and then pressing it onto paper, was a specialty of Skoczylas. His technique was characterized by bold lines and a strong contrast between light and shadow, which is evident in the "Święty Sebastian" print. The work reflects Skoczylas's interest in the revival of traditional Polish artistic techniques and his dedication to incorporating national motifs into his art.

"Święty Sebastian" is not only a representation of the artist's technical skill but also an example of the religious and cultural imagery prevalent in Polish art during the early 20th century. The figure of Saint Sebastian, often invoked for protection against plagues, may have held particular significance during the tumultuous times in which Skoczylas lived, marked by war and the struggle for Polish independence.

As an influential figure in Polish art, Władysław Skoczylas's works, including "Święty Sebastian," are important for their contribution to the national artistic identity and for their embodiment of the cultural and historical context of Poland during the interwar period. The print remains an exemplary piece of Skoczylas's oeuvre and is studied for its aesthetic and cultural value in the history of Polish art.
