Baroque sculpture The Miracle of Saint Sebastien
About the Item
This 17th-century Southern European Baroque sculpture powerfully embodies the martyrdom and miraculous endurance of Saint Sebastian, a Roman soldier condemned for his Christian faith. Tied to a tree and pierced with arrows, Sebastian miraculously survived this brutal execution, a testament to divine intervention before ultimately succumbing to his fate.
Unlike the later 18th-century idealized depictions, this carved and painted wooden sculpture with its original patina embraces the Baroque era’s dramatic intensity, stripping away embellishment to confront us with the raw suffering and sacred resilience of the saint. The unpolished, almost naïve execution enhances the emotional gravity, making this piece a rare and evocative relic of faith, sacrifice, and the theatrical expressiveness of Baroque art, where realism and drama heighten devotion.
