Douay-Rheims. NT published at the English College at Rheims 1582. OT published at Douay 1609. KJV published 1611.

I am aware that the KJV was not published by a religious organization or that is my belief on the subject.

King James is believed to have been called a heretic by the Church, and although his mother was a Catholic he was not.

But what about the Douay-Rheims, was it translated by the authority of the Church?

Absolutely! The English College at Douay was the center of English Catholicism during that time period.
