"St. Sebastian" (Italian: "San Sebastiano") is a renowned Baroque painting by the Italian artist Guido Reni, completed circa 1615. The artwork depicts the Christian martyr Saint Sebastian, who was a popular subject in art due to his dramatic story and the symbolic representation of his steadfast faith. Reni's interpretation of the saint's martyrdom is particularly noted for its combination of both physical beauty and spiritual intensity.

The painting portrays Saint Sebastian tied to a tree, his body gracefully posed and pierced by arrows, a traditional representation of his martyrdom. Reni's mastery of chiaroscuro is evident in the work, as he skillfully uses light and shadow to sculpt the saint's musculature and to highlight the expression of serene acceptance on his face. The muted palette and the soft modeling of forms contribute to the overall sense of calm and transcendence amidst the violence of the scene.

Measuring approximately 170 cm in height, "St. Sebastian" is a life-sized depiction that draws the viewer into a contemplative engagement with the subject. Reni's work is characterized by its classical idealism and the influence of his predecessors, such as Raphael and Caravaggio, yet it also embodies a distinct emotional resonance that is emblematic of the Baroque period.

The painting is held in high esteem not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its influence on subsequent generations of artists. It has been housed in various collections over the centuries and has been the subject of extensive art historical scholarship. "St. Sebastian" by Guido Reni remains a significant work in the canon of Western art, exemplifying the power of religious imagery to convey complex human emotions and spiritual ideals.
