Légende

Return of the Pope to Rome - the Procession at the Church of San Giovanni, 1850. 'The Pope '...arrived at the Gate of St. John precisely at four, where he was received with repeated salvoes of artillery from several pieces of cannon planted just within the walls...no accidents occurred, although the trees were ready to break with the crowds of boys who had climbed into them to get a view of the scene. The pickpockets, too, with whom Rome now swarms-principally importations from Naples-were busy in the exercise of their vocation...His Holiness, on his arrival at the flight of steps leading to the Lateran, was received by Cardinal Barberini, Arch-priest of the Basilica...who opened the bronze gates of the church at his approach'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
