Litho of the Cardinal Prêtre (Cardinal Priest) in Full Ceremonial Regalia, 1862

About the Item

Cardinal Prêtre (Cardinal Priest), Plate 5, 1862 This beautifully handcolored lithograph, *Cardinal Prêtre* (Cardinal Priest), Plate 5 from *Album ou Collection Complète, et Historique des Costumes de la Cour de Rome* by G. Perugini, features a cardinal priest dressed in full ceremonial regalia. The figure is depicted wearing a richly embroidered chasuble with gold detailing over a white alb, paired with a striking red cassock. The cardinal also dons a tall mitre, emphasizing his high-ranking position within the Church hierarchy. The inclusion of the prayer book in his hands reflects the cardinal priest's significant role in performing the Eucharist and other sacred rites. The detailed lithography captures the intricate patterns and vibrant colors of the vestments, showcasing the ceremonial grandeur of the 19th-century Roman Catholic Church. Historical Context: The cardinal priests form part of the College of Cardinals and are responsible for leading titular churches in Rome. Their attire represents their liturgical function and status, highlighting the solemnity of their duties. This lithograph serves as an important historical record of the vestments and traditions of the Roman Catholic clergy during the mid-19th century. Provenance: Published in Paris by L’Aubert and Lemoine, this plate is part of a distinguished series documenting the attire of the Roman Catholic clergy. This artwork not only celebrates the craftsmanship of 19th-century lithographers but also provides a vivid glimpse into the ecclesiastical traditions of the time. An exceptional addition for collectors of ecclesiastical art, historical prints, and costume studies.
