?The martyrdom of Saint Sebastian, Bologna School circa 1600-1620.

The young man is almost naked, only dressed in a perizonium; He is tied by his two handles to a dead tree, while his feet are free.
Under the impact of the six arrows that just hit him, his feet have slipped away and he is now only held by his hand.
A tear beads on his worried face staring at the executioner who is about to give him death. His helmet and his centurion’s outfit are lying in front of him.
Nice state of conservation, small restorations of use, old lining, with canvases sewn together, dating from the end of the 17th or the beginning of the 18th century.
Unframed, painting probably originally included in the architecture of a chapel.
Oil on canvas, Bologna School circa 1600-1620.
Our work left the Italian territory in an official way, with a certificate of export of the fine arts, after a study of more than one year.
