"Saint Sebastian In Wood Early 17th"
Saint Sebastian In polychrome wood, Early 17th Saint Bastien, is one of the most represented martyrs in art. Roman martyr, having lived in the 3rd century. A career soldier under Diocetian and Maximian, he will be executed for having supported his co-religionists in their faith and accomplished several miracles. First tied to a pole and pierced with arrows (this is how the artists represent him) he is finally killed with rods after having miraculously healed the first time.
