Troyes Cathedral
w209 The Life of St Savinien
1240-50
Two angels
Tracery lights
A group of The Elect
An archer aims at Savinien tied to a column .... but hits the emperor in the eye instead
The executioner .....
.... decapitates him; he carries his head
Aurelian orders his torturing
He is given a red-hot helmet
He is beaten ...
... and roasted alive
Planting the staff that then flowered
His baptism
Savinien preaching with flowering staff
Savinien before Aurelian
