Magnificent picture. So tragic that such destruction happened in his name. He really never should have called the second Vatican Council - I have yet to see any good that came from it.
I applaud the Holy Father for restoring vesture that was always considered a normal part of the Papacy. I hope he brings back the sedia as well. Just because 1 pope in history (John Paul II) did away with the sedia is not reason to end an ancient practice. Perhaps the current Holy Father will bring other aspects of the papacy as well such as the Fannon and the gauntlets.
All Traditional vesture should be commonplace again. It is Catholic and identifies itself as such. All the suppression of the 60's was not necessary..It should be undone.
Imagine His Holiness with the white camauro (last picture at the end) ... It would be wonderful.
