Maiden Martyr Saragossa Vehement
EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: The Vehement Maiden: Saint Engratia of Saragossa, a Spanish Martyr from the Third Century Saint Engratia, also known as Saint Engracia or Saint Eulalia, is a revered figure in Spanish history and Catholicism, celebrated for her unwavering faith and courage during the persecution of Christians under the Roman Empire. Born in the city of Saragossa around the third century, she is venerated as a virgin and martyr. The image portrayed in this print captures the essence of Saint Engratia's life and legacy. Dressed in the traditional attire of a Roman maiden, she stands tall and resolute, her eyes fixed on the heavens, symbolizing her deep spiritual connection and unwavering commitment to her faith. The veil covering her head signifies her virginity and dedication to the divine. The circumstances of her martyrdom are shrouded in legend, but it is believed that she was subjected to various tortures, including being exposed to the elements, rolled in a barrel, and thrown into a bullring, all in an attempt to force her to renounce her faith. Despite these trials, she remained steadfast, inspiring awe and admiration from her persecutors and the people of Saragossa. Saint Engratia's story is a testament to the power of faith and the indomitable human spirit. Her memory continues to live on in Spain, where she is celebrated as the patron saint of the city of Saragossa and the protector of virgins. This print serves as a reminder of her courage and the enduring legacy of the early Christian martyrs. Circa 304 AD.
