EDITORS COMMENTS
Saint Susanna, a brave and devout woman of the early Christian era, is depicted in this evocative image from Mary Evans Picture Library. Born into a noble Roman family, Susanna was raised with a strong faith and a steadfast commitment to her beliefs. When Emperor Diocletian's son-in-law, Maximian, demanded that she marry him against her will, Susanna's refusal was met with dire consequences. Determined to punish the defiant Saint, Maximian ordered her father, a priest, to be arrested and executed alongside her. Susanna's unwavering faith in the face of persecution only strengthened as she prepared for her own martyrdom. The story of her courage and unyielding devotion to her beliefs spread throughout the Christian community, inspiring many others to stand firm in their faith. In this image, Susanna is shown wearing the traditional robes and veil of a Roman matron, her expression calm and resolute as she gazes out at the viewer. Her father, a priest in priestly vestments, stands beside her, his face etched with sorrow and concern. The backdrop of the image is a barren, rocky landscape, emphasizing the stark contrast between the harshness of the Roman Empire and the unwavering faith of this brave martyr and her father. This powerful and moving image serves as a reminder of the strength and resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity, and the enduring power of faith to inspire and sustain us through even the most difficult of times.
