EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to witness the intricate order and procedures followed during a conclave, where cardinals gather behind locked doors to elect a new Pope. The engraving, titled "Order and procedures for serving cardinals food and beverages during a conclave" provides an extraordinary glimpse into this secretive assembly. In this scene, we see a grand procession of servants led by the mace-bearer (mazziere) carrying sumptuous dishes and refreshing drinks for the esteemed cardinals. Every detail is meticulously planned as the food is presented to inspectors (riveditori) before being delivered through revolving boxes (ruote del conclave). The image showcases not only the opulence of these proceedings but also highlights the importance placed on proper service etiquette. It reflects an era when even mundane tasks like serving meals were executed with utmost precision. Created by Bartolomeo Scappi in 1570, this engraving immortalizes an essential aspect of papal elections - nourishing both body and soul while ensuring that every cardinal's needs are met within those sacred walls. As we gaze upon this historical artifact, we are transported back in time, gaining insight into centuries-old traditions that continue to shape our present-day understanding of one of Catholicism's most significant events.
