Description

Historic image of the soon-to-be Pope with his predecessor

Color satin-finish 8.25 x 5.75 photo of Pope Francis as a cardinal, signed in black ink, adding “Erzbischof von Buenos Aires,” under his signature. In very fine condition. Accompanied by a photo from the time of signing. Consignor notes that this was signed at a reunion of cardinals in Rome during 2012. A wonderful coupling of Pope Benedict XVI and his successor, just one year before the former surprised the world with his resignation, ushering in a new era for the Catholic Church. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
