Georges de La Tour · 1649
Why it's great
A woman holds a torch to look at the wounds of Saint Sebastian, as another woman pulls out an arrow. Georges de La Tour painted this in about 1649, and the torch lights up their serious faces.

Georges de La Tour was a French painter born in 1593 in Lorraine. He is known for quiet night scenes lit by a single candle, with smooth, simple shapes. He died in 1652, and was almost forgotten until the 1900s.
