EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical moment - the condemnation of heretics at the Council of Lombers in 1165. The scene, depicted in an engraving from Joseph Vaissete's "Histoire generale de Languedoc" published in Paris in 1737, transports us back to a time when religious beliefs held immense power and influence. The image showcases the intense atmosphere within the council chamber as religious authorities gather to pass judgment on those deemed heretics. The French School artist skillfully portrays this pivotal event from the 12th century, highlighting both its historical importance and cultural significance. The composition draws attention to the central figures involved in this dramatic confrontation between orthodoxy and dissent. Their expressions range from stern determination to righteous indignation, reflecting their unwavering commitment to upholding religious doctrine. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the profound impact that religion has had on shaping societies throughout history. It serves as a poignant reminder of how differing beliefs can lead to persecution and condemnation. Leonard de Selva's expert photography brings out every intricate detail of this remarkable engraving, allowing us to appreciate its artistic merit while also immersing ourselves in an important moment from our past. This print is not only visually stunning but also offers valuable insights into medieval history, religion, and societal dynamics during that era.
