Saint Acacius of Mount Ararat is shown on a cross, although without any wounds present, in the costume of a Spanish soldier of the late 18th or early 19th century. He often wears a crown of thorns, but here he is shown in a broad-brimmed hat. The saint was a Roman soldier in the second century but left the army, along with his soldiers, after converting to Christianity. The soldiers were crucified as punishment.
