Saint Sebastian Tended by Saint Irene,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating oil on canvas painting by Ludovico Lana, dates between 1650 and 1670 and is currently housed in the esteemed Collezione di BPER Banca in Modena, Italy. This exquisite Baroque masterpiece showcases the tender moment between two revered saints: Saint Sebastian and Saint Irene. Saint Sebastian, a Roman soldier turned Christian martyr, lies weakened on the ground, his body pierced by arrows. The arrow wounds symbolize his unwavering faith and commitment to Christianity, even in the face of persecution. His youthful, boyish face conveys innocence and purity, emphasizing the tragic irony of his martyrdom. In the foreground, the compassionate Saint Irene, one of the Myrrhbearers and a patron saint of Modena, attends to Saint Sebastian. She gently touches his wounded chest, offering solace and healing. The three Marys, also known as the Myrrhbearers, are present in the background, their solemn expressions reflecting their deep faith and devotion. The painting's intricate details and vibrant colors exemplify the School of Modena, a significant artistic movement during the Baroque period. The use of holy peace and biblical imagery further emphasizes the spiritual significance of the scene. The painting's rich history and artistic merit make it a cherished addition to the Collezione di BPER Banca and a testament to the enduring power of faith and compassion.
