EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Emblem of the Inquisition," dates back to the 17th century and offers a striking representation of the symbolic emblem of the Roman Catholic Inquisition during the Modern Age in Europe. The image features a cross, the primary symbol of Christianity, with two hands emerging from its base, one extending mercy while the other represents justice. The Latin motto "Culpam et Poenam" (guilt and penalty) is inscribed at the bottom, emphasizing the judicial nature of the Inquisition. The Inquisition was a tribunal established by the Roman Catholic Church to maintain orthodoxy by prosecuting heresy. Its jurisdiction extended across various European territories, most notably in Spain, Portugal, and Italy, where it operated from the 15th to the 18th centuries. This period was marked by religious and political turmoil, as various religious and philosophical movements challenged the established religious order. The Emblem of the Inquisition symbolizes the dual role of the tribunal - to mete out justice while offering mercy to those who repented and returned to the faith. The image serves as a reminder of the complex and often controversial history of religious and judicial institutions in Europe during the Modern Age. The intricate engraving, with its rich details and symbolism, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the intricacies of European history.
