I think it more resembles a medieval glass blowers furnace than a bee hive 
oven.  The two are similar in shape, but without a full view, it's 
impossible to tell.  Since it is a religious print, I think "cast into the 
furnace" might be more appropriate than "popped into the oven."

I found this while doing research on something else. Isn't that a beehive 
oven the poor unfortunate is being stuffed into?
