DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION
The statue depicts Saint Sebastian, the patron saint of archers, whose protection was once invoked against plagues.
For its refined execution, the soft expressiveness of the face, and the harmony and grace of the proportions, emphasized by the milky whiteness of the glazed terracotta decorated with cold gilding, Andrea Della Robbia's Saint Sebastian is certainly a valuable testimony to the city's artistic heritage.
