The Birchen Bouquet is a work of pornography first published around 1770, reprinted in 1826 by George Cannon, in 1860 by William Dugdale and again in 1881 by William Lazenby (when it was said to have been printed at Birchington-on-Sea).   It consists of a compilation of flagellation stories, mainly of women by women, some taken from The Englishwoman's Domestic Magazine (Marcus notes the curious fact that some material from this fashion magazine was reprinted verbatim in pornographic works).  Henry Spencer Ashbee described it as "very ordinary and insipid", expressing surprise at its frequent reprinting.

The Martyrdom of Saint Catherine is a 1653 oil on canvas painting by Guercino, commissioned by Cento to present to cardinal Alderano Cibo, papal legate in Ferrara.

History
Two preparatory drawings by Guercino for this painting are known. The first drawing corresponds compositionally with some changes to the Hermitage painting; on the back of the sheet there is a separate figure of the executioner. This drawing is in a private collection in London, England. The Museum of Fine Arts in Boston has a drawing that repeats the drawing from London, it has an indication that Francesco Bartolozzi made an engraving from it, but this work itself is unknown or its prints have not been preserved.

In the church of San Francesco in Monteluco there is a small copy of this painting by Ercole Gennari (46 by 35 cm); in all likelihood, the copy was made in the workshop of Guercino, who was once a student of Ercole Gennari's father Benedetto Gennari the Elder and maintained relations with his teacher's family until the end of his life. Ercole himself was married to Guercino's sister Lucia.

The painting was in Ferrara for a long time, then for a long time its whereabouts where unknown. It ressurfaced once again in the first half of the 19th century in London, where it was in the possession of the British merchant G. Farrer, from whom it was acquired by the King of the Netherlands, William II of the Netherlands. It was bought at the posthumous sale of the collection of William II of the Netherlands by Nicholas I of Russia in 1850 and since then has been in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg.

Description
The painting illustrates an episode described in the Golden Legend: the execution of the martyr Catherine of Alexandria. Catherine is depicted on her knees with her hands tied; next to her, a half-naked executioner with a sword in his hand grabs Catherine by the hair with the intention of cutting off her head. To the left behind the executioner is one of the four spiked wheels, which were originally supposed to crush the body of the martyr - this device was destroyed by an angel. The angel himself is depicted as a putto , holding a crown in his left hand and a palm branch in his right - according to the Golden Legend, these items are attributes of Catherine.

He is best known for his equestrian paintings and for his Spanish work, created when he accompanied Ernest Hemingway. Like his contemporary, Alfred Munnings, Millais was an opponent of Modernism in art, which he called "the Picasso lark".

Blood Orange is a 2016 film noir directed by Toby Tobias and starring Iggy Pop as an ageing rock star (Bill) and Kacey Barnfield as his young wife (Isabelle). It is the first film in which Iggy Pop played a lead role, although he had had previously had cameo roles in several films.

Plot
In a stunning modern Spanish Villa lives Bill, an aging, half-blind rock star, with his young, very beautiful and sexually promiscuous wife Isabelle. Into their Ibizan paradise comes Lucas, an ex-lover looking for revenge. Lucas wants his inheritance back; he believes she stole it from him, but Isabelle will give him nothing. Bill asks Lucas to stay and to make peace with Isabelle, but really he has another agenda. Meanwhile, Lucas is already torn up inside with the desire for revenge, and when he sees how Isabelle is having one of her flings with David, their Spanish pool boy, he sees an opportunity to turn the tables and things spiral dangerously out of control.

Cast
 Iggy Pop as Bill
 Kacey Barnfield as Isabelle
 Ben Lamb as Lucas 
 Antonio Magro as David

Critical reception
In the UK, the Radio Times commented that "the twist isn't entirely concealed, but it is surprisingly atmospheric and artful." The Guardian gave the film three stars out of five. Critic Stuart Bannerman described the film as “one of the highlights of my film viewing year”, and as “very well directed and filmed in beautiful locations”. The Hollywood Reporter said that Iggy Pop “oozes craggy charisma in his first starring role” and that his “casting should give it cult appeal in theaters”, but described the film as "more self-conscious homage to vintage film noir than a fully rounded addition to the genre", and criticised director Tobias for requiring Barnfield to appear nude in several scenes, commenting that "for male-written female-fantasy figures, the line between empowerment and exploitation is often a fuzzy one".
