Magistrate
she stands on a public place, exposed to the whole town.
It's always interesting when people mentally fill in an image with a white background.The crowd watching are just as uncertain.
That sort of cobbled stone thing the cross is sitting in does suggest some kind of town square or so.
It's actually a permanent mount for a cross that's put up in a very lonely place. She's been abandoned a while in a rather desolate place to contemplate her fate.
I decided to drop the original background though because it got visually cluttered.
There's a backstory to the original drawing, which however got abandoned by the author, and so I decided to liberate the drawing out of that context. There were definitely no breast-skewers in the original story
So here she is for reference in her solitude. All in all I do think 'Less is more' here. I got bored with the background
