Saint Sébastien appuyé contre la colonne est une gravure sur cuivre au burin datée vers 1498-1499 de l'artiste de la Renaissance allemande Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528), qui fait partie de sa série des Vies des Saints . (fr) Saint Sebastian at the Column is a 1500 copper engraving by the German artist Albrecht Dürer (1471–1528), part of his series of the Lives of the Saints. Dürer intended the work to represent both an idealised vision of 15th-century beauty, and an homage to classical sculpture. According to legend, Saint Sebastian was martyred by the Roman emperor Diocletian for his Christian faith. By the 16th century, artists were using Christian tales as an excuse to portray the humanistic nude body. The four arrows piercing Sebastian's body represent a symbolic wounding of a flawless body. The saint's pose echoes the Crucifixion, and like the saviour, Saint Sebastian is said to have risen from the dead, though in his case to punish those who have persecuted Christians for their beliefs. The engraving is an early example of the use of contrapposto in Western art, and one of the first depictions of the harmonic balance between opposing forces (in this case between the arrows and the flesh). Dürer encountered such concepts during his travels to north Italy, where he also found the inspiration for the harmonic contrast he renders between Saint Sebastian's engaged leg and his free leg.
