Filoctetes Abandonado is a 1850 oil by Alejandro Cicarelli, held at Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts.
This painting depicts a man standing on a rocky shore, wearing a red cloth draped around his waist. He has dark hair and a beard, and his right arm is outstretched as if gesturing to something in the distance. In the background, there is a body of water and a yellow sky. The man's pose and facial expression suggest that he is engaged in a dramatic or emotional moment. The use of warm colors, such as the red cloth and the yellow sky, adds to the sense of drama and intensity.
