The ghost of the holy inquisition (2020) 미술작품 Anatoly Fedorov 로

The Inquisition (from the Latin. inquisitio - inquiry, investigation) - in XIII-XIX centuries in the Roman Catholic Church the system of prosecution of serious crimes against the faith, first and foremost, heresy and witchcraft
The beginning of the activities of the Inquisition as a special ecclesiastical court of the Catholic Church to combat heresies initiated by Pope innocent III (pontificate 1198-1216); she acted in almost all Catholic countries from the XIII to the XIX centuries, the Last act of the burning at the stake occurred in Spain in 1826. The Supreme head of the Inquisition was the Pope..
In the archives of the Supreme court of the Inquisition in Spain kept a little less than 50 thousand records. The death sentences imposed only 775 accused. And this for the period from 1560 to 1700. Among those executed the majority of the Judaizers, and other heretics, about 50 people of different sexual orientation and a few witches.
According to differing reports, it appears that from 1550 to 1800 from 125-150 thousand people appeared before a court of the Inquisition in Catholic countries, was sentenced to death by about 3,000 people, of whom about 100 for witchcraft.
Now "witch hunt" is regarded as a shameful page in the history of the Church with a fat minus sign. All these brutal killings, cloaked by the Church, as the struggle with the heretics, of course, terrible. But the Holy Inquisition was made in the history of not only negative points. She greatly influenced the life and art of the middle Ages.
Great strides have been achieved in the art. Architects built Grand buildings. Built centuries ago, FORTS, temples, town halls and residential buildings still adorn the city. Sculptors and painters to more accurately portrayed life.
This work is in the bottom part reflects the "dark past" from which was born the institution of the Inquisition. The upper part of the picture shows the beauty of the architecture of the middle ages, represented by the Gothic. A symbolic red-brown tone on the periphery of the Central part as if to pay tribute to the popular view of the Inquisition. The person in the center in large part hidden by the shadow from the elements of architecture as a memory of those women whose vanished beauty did not continue in subsequent generations being destroyed by fires. Architectural elements with floral elements around the face seem to emphasize the tragic fate of this group of wonderful women who rise to the fire and praised in literature
