EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a page of text from the trial of the Templars, preserved on vellum and dating back to the 14th century. The manuscript, known as Ms Latin 11795 fol. 37, is housed in the prestigious Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France. The image transports us to a time when King Philip IV of France exerted immense pressure on Pope Clement V (1268-1314), leading to the dissolution of the renowned Order of the Temple. This historic document sheds light on the charges brought against these revered knights - heresy, idolatry, homosexuality, secret initiation rituals, corruption and fraud. The intricate details captured by this French School masterpiece reveal not only religious persecution but also medieval society's intolerance towards those who deviated from established norms. It serves as a poignant reminder that even esteemed figures like knights were not immune to punishment. As we delve into this remarkable piece of history through our visual journey with eArchives Charmet and Bridgeman Images' collaboration, let us reflect upon how societal attitudes have evolved over time while acknowledging that prejudice and injustice still persist today. May this photograph inspire contemplation about our collective responsibility to foster tolerance and understanding in an ever-changing world.
