In Memory Benedict XVI : 16

In a previous post we included a photograph of this beautiful straw-coloured cope, with its matching mitre.  On this occasion, your attention is drawn to the beautiful dalmatic which was used with the cope, although it does not exactly match it.  This dalmatic is ample and, although modern in appearance, is decorated according tradition.  It is very dignified.

A number of similar dalmatic in different colours were made in the last years of the reign of John Paul II.
