I'm not sure why, but there's some kind of rule that no one can depict Saint Sebastian in art without making it accidentally horny.
Whether or not it was done on purpose, this is arguably the best-known work of Aurelio Cabrera Gallardo that isn't a public monument.




San Sebastián by Aurelio Cabrera y Gallardo (1870-1936).
