For a too-brief period, a new Master of Papal Ceremonies, Monsignor
Guido Marini, introduced into the Papal suite chasubles in the
Borromeon form (often written about on this Blog). This post features a remarkable chasuble which was used on Pentecost Sunday 2008, made from a reproduction of a Renaissance damask. Beautiful as it was, the chasuble fitted the Pope ill and was not used again. Matching dalmatics are also shewn.
