About the Item
Souverain Pontife Célébrant la Grand’ Messe (Supreme Pontiff Celebrating High Mass), Plate 2, 1862
This hand-colored lithograph, titled *Souverain Pontife Célébrant la Grand’ Messe* (Supreme Pontiff Celebrating High Mass), Plate 2 from *Album ou Collection Complète, et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome* by G. Perugini, illustrates the Pope during the celebration of High Mass. The Holy Father is depicted standing on a raised platform, adorned in resplendent golden vestments, including an ornate chasuble embroidered with intricate patterns and a ceremonial mitre.
Behind him, an elaborate backdrop covered with an ermine pattern emphasizes his supreme ecclesiastical authority. His open-palmed gesture, characteristic of a pontifical blessing, signifies his role as the spiritual mediator during this solemn occasion. The composition highlights the Pope's central role in Catholic liturgical ceremonies and the majestic tradition surrounding papal liturgy.
Historical Context:
This lithograph captures the grandeur of 19th-century papal ceremonies, a time when the Catholic Church emphasized its authority and influence through highly ritualized and visually striking liturgical practices. The Pope's attire and ceremonial setting symbolize the continuity of centuries-old traditions rooted in the history of the Church.
Provenance:
Published by Lith. H. Jeannin
P. Sarrazin in Paris, this lithograph is part of a larger collection that meticulously documents the ecclesiastical and ceremonial costumes of the Catholic Church. It provides a rare visual insight into the papal court's religious pageantry, making it invaluable for collectors and enthusiasts of religious art, costume history, and Catholic tradition.
A splendid and historical piece that embodies the intersection of art, religion, and history.
