Saint Sebastian Tied to a Tree, Pierced by Arrows
A nearly nude young man, his arm bound above his head to a tree trunk, looks downward while three arrows pierce his torso and shoulder, with thin lines of blood running down his skin. Dark foliage and a sky fill the background, and a white cloth wraps his hips against the warm, shadowed painting.
