Saint Sebastian is often depicted in art as being bound to a tree and shot with arrows, resembling the suffering of Jesus on the cross. Both figures are seen as martyrs who endured great physical pain for their faith. Additionally, like Jesus, Saint Sebastian is considered a symbol of perseverance and strength in the face of persecution.
