Oil On Wooden Panel Saint Sebastian, 20th Century

We present a compelling oil on wooden panel painting depicting Saint Sebastian, created in Italy between 1925 and 1930, a period associated with the Rationalist movement, and of significant artistic and historical interest. This work stands out for its modern and powerful interpretation of a sacred subject, combining spirituality with the formal research characteristic of the early 20th century.

The depiction of the Saint is particularly striking: tear-filled eyes, together with a single arrow piercing the neck, create a scene of strong emotional impact. Notably, there is no expression of pain; instead, the figure conveys a calm and dignified acceptance of martyrdom. This choice gives the painting deep symbolic meaning and a rare expressive elegance. The controlled and balanced brushwork enhances the rendering of the flesh tones and the harmony of the composition, highlighting the technical quality of the artwork.

The painting measures 50 x 39 cm and is set in its original period frame, perfectly consistent with the era, with overall dimensions of 64 x 54 cm, reinforcing its authenticity and collector appeal.

An ideal acquisition for collectors and enthusiasts of 20th-century sacred art, capable of enriching any interior with character, history, and refined presence.
