Saint Sebastian Tied to a Post, Pierced by Arrows
A nude male saint, with a golden halo and tousled hair, stands bound to a tree trunk while arrows pierce his torso, arms, and legs. A loincloth covers his hips, and a rocky landscape with hills and a pale sky lies behind him. The painted panel shows a calm, frontal composition with an unhurried, devotional tone.
