Something pertinent to the quiet before the storm

Can you identify what this picture represents?  Perhaps a little more difficult than the last shot.

Secret Archive #2

UPDATE: Well, after a few guesses, and before all of the madness tomorrow, I'll close the bidding and award points to Titus and Bill Collier.  The shot is from the Book of Oaths of the judges -- the "Auditores," as one can see from the inscription -- of the sacred Roman Rota.  The Rota is the highest Catholic ecclesiastical court (Titus was wise to the judicial language in the inscription).  The judges are praying together, each off of their respective bench.  Collier hit it right, too -- our own Justices could use a little inspiration too from time to time.
