Comforting to know her wounds were healed so that the torture could mercifully continue.

Really well done, D. So realistic looking. Muted lighting. The upward, attentive gaze of the Roman officer. The crucified woman’s exhaustion apparent in her limp hanging posture, and drooping head. Realistic bleeding from wrists and feet. Love it

EUDOKIA OF HELIOPOLIS SCOUGED AS A CHRISTIAN REBEL
Eudokia was born in Heliopolis of Lebanon and came from Samaria. She was very beautiful and rich, attracting rich lovers. When she met the monk Germanus, she was baptized a Christian by Bishop Theodotus. From that moment she left her liberated life and followed an ascetic life, going to a monastery.
Eudokia was accused by her former lovers who betrayed her as a Christian to the ruler Vincent. Eventually, Vincent ordered her beheading and Eudokia was martyred. According to the tradition, she was cruelly scourged and finally beheaded.

MARGARETA OF ANTIOCHIA TORTURE WITH IRON HOOKS
According to a 9th-century martyrology of Rabanus Maurus, she suffered at Antioch in Pisidia (in what is now Turkey) in around 304, during the Diocletianic persecution. She was the daughter of a pagan priest named Aedesius. Her mother having died soon after her birth, Margareta was nursed by a Christian woman five or six leagues (6.9–8.3 miles) from Antioch. Having embraced Christianity and consecrated her virginity to God, Margaret was disowned by her father, adopted by her nurse, and lived in the country keeping sheep with her foster mother. Olybrius, Governor of the Roman Diocese of the East, asked to marry her, but with the demand that she renounce Christianity. Upon her refusal, she was cruelly tortured, in various ways. Eventually, she was decapitated.

AGNES OF ROME SCOURGED IN THE ARENA
Agnes was the daughter of a Roman patrician family. During one of the persecutions in Rome in the 3rd Century, she refused to make the obligatory sacrifice to the emperor. According to one version of the legend she rejected the hand of the son of the city prefect, expressing her wish to maintain her virginity for Christ's sake.
She was brought to trial. The judge wanted to put Agnes to shame and had her stripped naked in public and savagely scourged, then thrown into prison. When the authorities realized that Agnes could not be turned away from her faith, they ordered her to be burned alive, but the flames did not touch her. Finally the executioner pierced her throat with a sword.

PETRONILLA OF ROME PUBLICLY TORTURE TO DEATH AS A CHRISTIAN REBEL
Aurelia Petronilla lived in Rome at the end of the Ist Century. Archaeological excavations seem to indicate that she was a member of a patrician family, the Flavii, and possibly a relative of the martyr Flavia Domitilla. Beyond that, little is known about her. It is likely that she fell victim to the persecution of Emperor Domitianus. She has been venerated as a virgin martyr at least since the Vth Century.
According to an old legend a Roman official desired to marry her, but had her arrested and tortured to death when she refused him.
The "Legenda Aurea" considers her the daughter of St. Peter, which is due to a misinterpretation of her name.

CHRISTINA OF TYRO SCOURGED IN THE ARENA
Her hagiography seems to be composed of elements of the lives of other saints, and some of her ordeals are too good to be true. According to the legend, her father was the governor of Tyro, a no longer existing town on an island in the lake of Volsinium now Lago di Bolsena, Italy), and of course a pagan. He kept his daughter locked in a tower to keep her away from the new religions spreading through the Roman empire. But one of the servants assigned to her was a Christian, and so Christina heard of the Christian faith and accepted it. Her father was furious and, in order to set her mind right, subjected her to punishments and tortures of increasing atrocity: whipping by his soldiers, roasting on an iron bed or cradle, boiling in sulphur, drowning in the lake with a millstone around her neck, etc.—but nothing worked. Finally he had her taken to the circus of his town, where his soldiers first scourged her, then cut the girl's tongue off and finally shot her with arrows.
