Simon of Trent depicted as being killed and tortured by Jews. Woodcut by M. Wolgemut, ca. 1493.

The boy suffering torture has a band next to him lettered "simon mr [with macron over mr]". He is Simon of Trent (Trento). The subject was identified by A.W. Haggis (Wellcome Museum) on 20 November 1936 as the death of Saint William of Norwich, which was said to have occurred at the hands of Jews (identified as the culprits "ex ipso penarum modo" according to Thomas of Monmouth). Some of the torturers in the present print have Jewish names (Israhel, Samuel, Thobias, Moyses). Cut from the Nuremberg Chronicle, folio CCLIIII
