Most paintings of saints display the way they were martyred, even if they're alive and well in the painting. St. Bartholomew will be holding a flaying knife, and that kind of thing. And then there's St. Agatha.
Portraits of St. Agatha in the West are readily identified by the presence of a platter holding her severed breasts, as at right. Sometimes she also holds the pincers used to remove them. In one image just one severed breast hangs by a cord from her fingers. https://www.christianiconography.info/agatha.html
Maybe, its less about honoring or remembering him and more about not letting the living forget how he was murdered.
yea feels like its saying "here is this person we remember and revere and dont you forget how they killed him"
Though, if I squint really hard, it kinda looks like everybody in the car is smiling. Not sure what to make of that.
the smile and him sticking his head out the window is a bit distracting lmao
Did they use faceapp or something to make his picture smile? Lol
