Winter's Embrace in Ramsau. ❄️ The charming Parish Church of St. Sebastian stands majestically against the backdrop of the snow-capped Berchtesgaden Alps. A quaint pedestrian bridge crosses the icy Ramsauer Ache river.

The final batch of Instax pix for my 2024 book-project.

Now that the scavenger hunt is over, the hard part begins:

Scan of 5 Instax photos: a Mobil station through an apartment window, with a sculpture/bust of JFK on the left side, in profile; a transom above a wood door, with the words "Art is Work" painted on the glass; two small sculptures of the Buddha on a shelf in a kitchen, with a world map behind them; a 600-year-old wooden statue of St. Sebastian, in a shaft of sunlight from the upper right, with a white wall and a brick wall in the background; a tile floor in front of a pair of apartment doors

Today's Flickr photo with the most hits: this splendid St Sebastian, in the cathedral of Amiens.

Carved in pale grey stone, high up on a supporting pillar, a carved statue of St Sebastian looks down. His loincloth and arrows are gilded. Over his shoulder, a fat putto bestows the gilded palm of martyrdom.

Happy Feast Day of St. Sebastian, for those who celebrate! And for those that don't, Happy Penguin Appreciation Day!

Sandro Botticelli -- St Sebastian

This 1474 depiction of the beauty of the male body, classical in inspiration and serene in mood, is one of my favourite Botticelli paintings.

#Botticelli #StSebastian

St Sebastian is shown at full length, wearing only a loincloth, his body pierced by six arrows and an expression of calm on his face.
