Saint Faith is a legendary martyr popularly said to have lived at the end of the third century. Her unreliable legend says she was arrested during a period of persecution of Christians by the Roman Empire and tortured to death because she refused to make pagan sacrifices. Like many such martyr traditions, she is portrayed as a beautiful young virgin.
