Edited detail of Saint Dominic Guzmán Presiding over an Auto-da-fe, 1493-1499. Pedro Berruguete (Spanish, 1450-1504).

Auto-da-fe (English: “act of faith”) was the final stage of Inquisition for prisoners accused of heresy or apostasy in Spain, Portugal, and Mexico, beginning in the 15th century. Ostensibly a final act of penance, but essentially a public execution, the most common conclusion was death by fire, though forms of pre-mortem torture and/or other methods of capital punishment were occasionally used as well.
