Pope St. Gregory the Great (M 067) Classic Round Sticker

Pope St. Gregory the Great (M 067) Classic Round Sticker

On 3 September 590, a fiftyish Benedictine monk was elected 64th Pope by unanimous acclamation. He was to become known as Pope St. Gregory the Great (c. 540-12 March 604). Here, St. Gregory is shown wearing formal papal regalia—a gold triple crown tiara, an elaborate pectoral cross, and a purplish pink ‘mantum’ or long cope with a gold-coloured lining over a white, floor-length linen tunic or alb. In his white-gloved hands, he holds pen and scroll. A white dove representing the Holy Spirit whispers in his ear, divinely inspiring his writings. The scene takes place in an alcove under a slightly pointed stone arch and against a green and gold brocade curtain suspended from a rod. The whole is meant to recall what was seen by his secretary St. Philip the Deacon, who peeked behind just such a curtain when St. Gregory repeatedly paused at length while giving dictation. The artwork does not represent the incident per se; rather, it compresses several ideas at once—the grandeur of the Medieval papacy, St. Gregory’s importance as writer—he is one of the Four Great Doctors of the Latin Church, and his miraculous inspiration. + Pope St. Gregory is patron saint of teachers and students, and musicians and singers (but that’s another story!). + Feast: September 3 + Image Credit (M 067): Antique image of Pope St. Gregory the Great from a devotional print in chromolithography commemorating the 1300th anniversary of his accession to the papacy, originally published by Nákl. Karla Šimka, Č[eské] Budějovice, (now the) Czech Republic, 1890, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera.

I wasn't sure if this was an unnecessary piece for our invitations, but I am so happy I ordered them! They looked great and it made for easy sealing of the envelopes. Some of the white circles were not centred on the main circle, but that didn't bother me too much. Colour was what I anticipated.
