Madrid, 1869 - El Escorial, Madrid, 1934
See author's fileSaint Eulalia (Merida, Spain, 292 AD) was a martyr. According to some Christian sources, she was martyred in the year 304 by order of the governor Dacian. On her death, snow covered her body, which was rescued days later by a group of Christians to bury her. This work was exhibited in the 1895 National Exhibition of Fine Arts (no. 858) where it was awarded the third-place medal.
