Description

David van der Leyen (or Verleyen), an Anabaptist martyr, was executed with Levina Ghyselius at Ghent, on February 14, 1554 by burning at the stake. David was a young man who firmly confessed his faith and steadfastly suffered all vexations both of body and mind, and that after the fire had gone out, David was miraculously still alive, was stabbed with a long fork. Implements of torture lie on the ground; spectators are on the left and a church is in the background; religious officials observe the proceedings.
