Women torturing women. What’s not to like?
“Bessonov Nicolay. Dungeon. Canvas. 1990.”
An amazing painting by an amazing painter and historian.
Bessonov’s website can be found at http://www.inquisition-art.net/.
Absolutely superb artwork.

Barbara Steele
The ever so lovely Barbara Steele. Never seen her like this before though,
… when INSEX first shot this it was really edgy … the full scene is still amazing! …
Simply superb. Look closely at her neck:)
1629 Verbatim account of the torture of an accused witch.
Verbatim report of the first days of torture of a woman accused of witchcraft at Prossneck, Germany, in 1629. 1. The hangman bound the hands, cut her hair, and placed her on the ladder. He threw alcohol over her head and set fire to it so as to burn her hair to the roots. 2. He placed strips of sulphur under her arms and around her back and set fire to them. 3. He tied her hands behind her back and pulled her up to the ceiling. (undoubtedly this is the strappado torture) 4. He left her hanging there from three to four hours, while the torturer went to breakfast. 5. On his return, he threw alcohol on her back and set fire to it. 6. He attached very heavy weights on her body and drew her up again to the ceiling. After that he put her back on the ladder and placed a very rough plank full of sharp points against her body. 7. Then he squeezed her thumbs and big toe in the vise, and he trussed her arms with a stick, and in this position kept her hanging about a quarter of an hour, until she would faint away several times. 8. Then he squeezed the calves and the legs in the vise, always alternating the torture with questioning. 9. Then he whipped her with a rawhide whip to cause blood to flow out over her shift. 10. Once again, he placed her thumbs and big toes in the vise, and left her in this agony on the torture stool from 10:00 a.m. till 1:00 p.m., while the hangman and the court officials went out to get a bite to eat. In the afternoon a functionary came who disapproved this pitiless procedure. But then they whipped her again in a frightful manner. This concluded the first day of torture. The next day they start all over again, but without pushing things quite as far as the day before. -Wilhelm Pressel, Hexen and Hexenmeister (1860)
Torture by strappado for three or four hours - totally unimaginable, and the whipping she was subjected to and described in the account must have surely been absolutely savage!
The Holy Sister explains what horrors and savage, unimaginable pain soon await when the accused Witch is taken to the torture chamber for interrogation!!!
The young Witch has just begun to realize the gravity of her situation at the hands of the Holy Witch-hunters. As the hours, days, weeks and indeed months in captivity slowly ebb by, she will eventually beg and plead for a merciful death burned at the stake.
Newly arrived Witch. Her position of nobility will not protect her from the charges against her. In due order she will stripped naked and put to torture the same as those of lower social class. Perhaps even with more savagery!
