São Vito — História e Análise

Vito foi um menino siciliano do século IV que suportou formas bárbaras de tortura após sua conversão ao cristianismo. A mais cruel delas foi ser fervido, aos doze anos, em um caldeirão de óleo, resina e alcatrão. Milagrosamente, ele sobreviveu, graças à sua fé inabalável.

Representar Vito em um caldeirão era muito popular durante a Idade Média, especialmente no sul da Alemanha.
