I don't know what the ' Shh' gesture is for.maybe he's trying to indicate he's got a splitting headache? I had to include this great photo.

The Deaths of The Saints. Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Tortures and Torments of The Christian Martyrs. I've just received this in the mail. It's a study on the torture techniques used on early Christian martyrs. a nice bit of light bedtime reading. It features medieval engravings depicting the various methods that were used in the early days of Christianity. The perpetrators were amazingly inventive and astonishingly cruel in their methods. And drawings by convicted serial killers like Charles Manson.

The Deaths of The Saints. Friday, April 16, 2010. The Daughter of Judah. A bit of a departure from the norm here. This was done as a contribution to the excellent Book of Genocide. Blog: wherein artists interpret and illustrate allocated passages from the Bible. I got this, from the lamentaitons of Jeremiah;. I did a little research on Jeremiah and on the various interpretations of this passage. Then I read a little more. Anyway, here is the "daughter" being crushed as in a wine press by the lord.

The Deaths of The Saints: May 2009
http://deathsofthesaints.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
The Deaths of The Saints. Monday, May 25, 2009. I've only got eyes for you. Here's an interesting one. This painting of St Barabra/Paraskevi of the Greek Orthodox Church. S is so similar to that of traditional depictions of Saint Lucy that I wonder if somewhere along the way their stories got blurred. Although their histories are quite different, both refer to their imperviousness to pain and torture and it's not everyday you see a girl with a pair of eyes on a serving dish. Sunday, May 24, 2009.

The Deaths of The Saints: September 2008
http://deathsofthesaints.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html

The similarity of the torture devices and the wool carding tool are pretty obvious- have a look here. Blaise, according to ...
