EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, titled "Ecclesiastics" and dated 1850, depicts a group of clergymen gathered in the Piazza di Campidaglio in Rome, Italy. The scene unfolds on the morning of the 13th ultimo (ultimate), following the reinstatement of their Sovereign-Pontiff in his temporal dominions on the preceding day, March 12. The men, dressed in full ecclesiastical attire, engage in animated discussion, their faces reflecting great satisfaction and congratulatory expressions. The clergymen's apparel includes tricorn hats, long robes, and cassocks, some adorned with ermine trim and others carrying umbrellas. A few men are seen taking snuff from small containers, while one figure leans against a wall, seemingly deep in thought. The overall atmosphere exudes a sense of relief and joy, as the restoration of the ecclesiastical regime was a significant event in the Roman Catholic Church during the 19th century. This engraved print, published in the Illustrated London News, offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and customs of the time. The men's accessories, such as their hats and umbrellas, add to the intricate details that make this photograph a valuable piece of historical documentation. The image is a testament to the rich history and traditions of the Roman Catholic Church during the Victorian era.
