This photo reproduction, likely based on a drawing, depicts Pope Pius IX, who served as head of the Catholic Church from 1846 to 1878. The anonymous artist captured the Pope in a formal portrait, highlighting his papal regalia, including the distinctive white cassock, a black cape, and a prominent rosary with a cross.
