medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Herewith a link to an earlier 'Saints of the day' for 13. May (including St. Mocius; St. Servatius; St. Agnes of Poitiers; "Bl." Julian of Norwich; Bl. Gemma of Goriano Sicoli):

Further to Mocius:
Mocius in flames (at upper left) as depicted in a May calendar composition in the earlier fourteenth-century frescoes (betw. ca. 1312 and 1321/1322) in the monastery church of the Theotokos at Gračanica in, depending upon one's view of the matter, either the Republic of Kosovo or Serbia's province of Kosovo and Metohija:

Further to Servatius:
For reasons of time I've not been able examine all the links in that earlier post's notice of this saint let alone attempt to find replacements for the ones that no longer function.
Genevra Kornbluth's views of the so-called Seal of St. Servatius and of the thirteenth-century portal sculptures on his church in Maastricht are here (Thank you, Genevra!):
