In this painting, Saint Sebastian gazes up towards the right.

His hands are crossed over his chest and his breast is pierced by an arrow. This painting was part of a collection of 117 works belonging to the industrialist and engineer F.D. Lycett Green and bequeathed to York through the Art Fund, in 1955, in recognition of the remarkable efforts made after the Second World War by its curator to transform it into a gallery of international importance.

Provenance
