Nobody here probably cares but I cried the entire lunch break in school today.
Anyway here's this cool artwork called "Ecce homo" by Guido Reni to keep you entertained. The name is in latin and it means "Behold the man".

This is the first painting of St. Sebastian--Ter Brugghen's--that comes to my mind because I'm most familiar with this one. I've always found it quite beautiful how Ter Brugghen painted the strained muscles. Also, this is one of the few paintings that show the aftermath. Most paintings of St. Sebastian show him tied to the tree, so the composition can feel a little stiff sometimes, but this one feels very fluid.
But when I was drawing shuake comic, I was thinking of another artist...
Guido Reni.
Reni's Sebastian makes Caravaggio's paintings look modest.
I mean, should he really pose the saint like this?
Why? Why, Guido, why?
So yeah.

Misunderstood, neglected, forgotten. The Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany is
rediscovering one of the star painters of the Italian Baroque in a landmark exhibition: GUIDO RENI. The Divine. In his day, Reni (1575-1642) was one of the most successful and celebrated painters in all of Europe, coveted by the most important patrons, including the Borghese Pope Paul V, the Duke of Mantua, and the Queen of England. In this interview, James Blake Wiener speaks to curator Dr. Bastian Eclercy about the exhibition and Guido Reni’s brilliance as one the greatest artists of the Baroque era.
