# Tempietto del Volto Santo : St Sebastian [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [CIVITALE, Matteo]() - Date: 1451-1500 - Technique: Photo ## Commentary The chapel of the Volto Santo is an elaborate octagonal structure that demonstrates Civitali's indebtedness to the architecture of Michelozzo and Brunelleschi. An elegant, semi-nude life-size statue of St Sebastian, set in an external niche, is derived from Antonio Rossellino's St Sebastian \(c. 1475; Empoli, Collegiata\) and also recalls Perugino's idealized youthful saints of the 1480s and 1490s. ## Related artworks - [Adam]() - [Altar tomb of St Regulus \(detail\)]() - [Altar tomb of St Regulus \(detail\)]() - [Altar tomb of St Regulus]() - [Bust of a Saint]() - [Eve]() - [Exterior view]() - [Saint Sebastian \(detail\)]() - [St Elizabeth]() - [St Sebastian]() - [St Zacharias]() - [Statues of Saints]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
