Cardinal en Habit de Ville (Cardinal in City Attire), Plate 13, 1862

About the Item

Cardinal en Habit de Ville (Cardinal in City Attire), Plate 13, 1862 This elegant handcolored lithograph, *Cardinal en Habit de Ville* (Cardinal in City Attire), Plate 13 from *Album ou Collection Complète, et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome* by G. Perugini, portrays a cardinal dressed in refined city garments. The cardinal is attired in a tailored black cassock with vibrant red piping, symbolizing his rank and affiliation with the Roman Catholic Church. Complementing his attire are striking red stockings and a bicorne hat, a traditional feature of clerical city wear. Accompanying the cardinal is a young servant or page in complementary livery, whose subdued demeanor highlights the cardinal's status and authority. The overall composition emphasizes the grace and decorum of ecclesiastical figures when engaging in public duties or civic life. Historical Context: This depiction reflects the 19th-century norms for cardinals' formal civilian dress during official appearances outside liturgical settings. The attire underscores their dual role as spiritual leaders and influential figures in societal and political circles. Provenance: Published in Paris by L’Aubert and Lemoine, this lithograph is part of a detailed series capturing the hierarchical and ceremonial costumes of the Roman Catholic Church. The work is a testament to the artist's meticulous attention to the aesthetics and symbolism of the Church's traditions. This piece is an excellent addition for collectors focusing on ecclesiastical art, historical costume, or 19th-century religious iconography.
