Jean Cox-Rearick related the present Saint Sebastian to a drawing in the Uffizi, Florence, which is also closely related to the Four Evangelists in the Capponi chapel. The drawing is a study for the figure of Saint Matthew in which the Evangelist has a pose similar to that of the present saint: arranged frontally with the body turned to the right, looking left and supporting the weight of the body on the left elbow, the torso partly covered by a cloak that allows it to be seen.The present painting has been dated 1533, at a time when Bronzino was defining his own artistic personality following his assimilation of Pontormo
