About the Item

Antique print, titled: 'Le Pape va en ceremonie prendre possession du pontificat (…)' - This very large original antique print shows the procession for the Papal inauguration in the St. John Lateran Archbasilica, Rome.

Moubach, 1727-1738 (French edition 1721-1725). An English edition called 'Ceremonies and religious Rites of the various nations of the known world....', appeared in 1733. It was the most elaborate history of world religion published up to that time. The plates in this work were adapted by B. Picart and others from various sources including de Bry. Artists and Engravers: Made by 'Bernard Picart' after an anonymous artist. The author of this work is A. Moubach. The most important engraver of this work is Bernard Picart (1673-1733).
