akg5285448 Knights Templar trial papers : 1308 parchment titled Processus Contra Templarios (Trial against the Templars)- The Vatican publishes a long-misplaced, 700-year-old papal report on the medieval holy warriors. It is a 1308 parchment titled Processus Contra Templarios (Trial against the Knights Templar), which chronicles the order's sordid endgame: the accusations of heresy, the Templars' defense, and Pope Clement V's absolution of the order, before he did an about-face and eliminated it. The document misplaced in Vatican's archives until 2001, is reportedly the official transcript of that trial and Clement's 1308 verdict, which found the Templars to be immoral but not heretical. The Pope allegedly intended to reform them. But under continued pressure from his French protector, Clement instead disbanded them in 1312 and gave most of their riches to a rival military order.Vatican, 2007.

akg7895391 LOISEAU, GUSTAVEParis 1865 - 1935L'eglise d'Auvers-sur-Oise, temps gris. Oil on canvas. 50,5 x 61,5 cm. Signed and dated lower left: G. Loiseau 1910. Framed. Provenance: - Private collection, Paris - Hammer Galleries, New York with enclosed authentication from the gallery dated July 10, 1985. Certificate:Didier Imbert, Paris dated July 10, 1985, is to be enclosed into the catalogue raisonné in progress.Influenced by the style of his friend Paul Gauguin, Gustave Loiseau belonged to the second generation of impressionists. In 1901 the gallery owner Durand-Ruel, who had already signed him on in 1897, aligned a large solo exhibition for him. With the sole purpose to depict nature as honest as possible he developed an own impressionistic style which is characteristed by vivid, dynamic colour application.Just like Cézanne, Pissarro and van Gogh he is magically attracted time and time again by the rural Auvers. There he often visits his friend Dr. Gachet. In his painting of the church of Auvers-sur-Oise Loiseau he masterly depicts an everyday scene on a cloudy summer day. Loyal to his restrained nature he captures the unspectacular life off the metropolis in muted colours. Special-Edition-Catalogue_Collection_Stinner Text-Special-Edition-Catalogue_Collection_Stinner.

alb3605357 The Harvesters. Artist: Pieter Bruegel the Elder (Netherlandish, Breda (?) ca. 1525-1569 Brussels). Dimensions: Overall, including added strips at top, bottom, and right, 46 7/8 x 63 3/4 in. (119 x 162 cm); original painted surface 45 7/8 x 62 7/8 in. (116.5 x 159.5 cm). Date: 1565.This panel belongs to a series, commissioned by the Antwerp merchant Niclaes Jongelinck for his suburban home. The cycle originally included six paintings showing the times of the year. Apart from The Harvesters, which is usually identified as representing July-August, or late summer, four other paintings of the group have survived (now in the Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna, and Lobkowicz Collection, Prague). Bruegel's series is a watershed in the history of western art. The religious pretext for landscape painting has been suppressed in favor of a new humanism, and the unidealized description of the local scene is based on natural observations.

Date: 1500-1510.The picture dates about 1500 and is painted in the somewhat harsh style Botticelli evolved during the years Florence was under the sway of the reforming preacher Savonarola. It belongs to a series of four panels illustrating the life of the fifth-century bishop of Florence, all of which are notable for their architectural settings. At left, Zenobius meets a funeral procession and restores a dead youth to life. At center, he raises a man who was killed while bringing relics (in the casket) from Saint Ambrose. At right, Saint Eugenius receives water and salt blessed by Zenobius and then hastens across the square to revive a dead relative.

alb3662510 The Battle at Ichinotani, Scenes from The Tale of the Heike. Artist: Tosa School. Culture: Japan. Dimensions: 68 3/4 x 133 1/4 in. (174.6 x 338.5 cm). Date: 17th century.The victory of the Minamoto over the Taira, which left the samurai class in power in Japan for more than seven centuries, was assured by this battle fought off the shores of western Japan in the second month of the year 1184. Around the Minamoto stronghold at Ichinotani, scores of warriors are shown in the dramatic confrontations recounted in the ninth section of the Heike monogatari. In the middle of the two left panels is the poignant encounter between the young Taira Atsumori, fleeing on horseback into the water, and the veteran Genji warrior Kumagai Naozane, who rides toward shore, war fan in hand, calling the young man to return to fight. The tragic denouement, so well known it goes undepicted here, underscores the Buddhist theme of the saga: Naozane, discovering that his foe is only a youth who reminds him of his own son, would spare him were it not for the arrival of his fellow warriors on the scene. Accepting the inevitable bitterness of a warrior's duty, he takes the boy's life, but subsequently renounces the world to become a monk.The compositional device of pairing highly detailed figure painting and a strong overall surface design mirrors the structure of the ballads from which these episodes were taken. In both oral and visual traditions, there is a delicate balance struck between colorful individual action and the larger forces of fate. These screens were acquired separately; the two were reunited at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1989.(One of a pair; see 60.40). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
