Timothy of Rome: Torture -- Within architectural setting, Timothy of Rome, nimbed, reclines on table. With ladle, tormentor pours quicklime from basin into his mouth. Several men look on.
Outside of architectural setting, within landscape, two soldiers, wearing armor, look on.
Above, two angels, one with joined hands raised, appear below God, rays issuing from nimbus, crowned, within arc of heaven. He holds crown in both hands.
