Printed Book of Hours (Use of Rome): fol. 102v, St. Sebastian

An illustration of a shirtless man with long brown hair and a white loincloth, pierced by multiple arrows, standing in a grassy field with trees and blue sky in the background. The man stands to the right of center, with his body facing forward and his head turned slightly to the right. His left arm hangs down by his side, while his right arm is bent at the elbow, with his hand resting on his hip. The image is framed by a decorative border with carved stone-like details and a blue vertical stripe on the left side. The border is tan with brown details. At the top of the border, there is red text that reads "De Sancto Sebastiano. Antiphona". Below the illustration, there is a block of black and red text in a foreign language, likely Latin, written in an old-fashioned calligraphy style. The background of the image is off-white, resembling aged paper.
