Scenes in the Life of Christ and the Catholic Heirarchy of the U.S.

Scenes in the Life of Christ and the Catholic Heirarchy of the U.S.

At the top of the engraving is a triptych showing the Crucifixion flanked by the Nativity and the Ascension. Below is a portrait image of Pius IX flanked by Jesus, Mary, Martin Spalding and John McCloskey. Below that are portraits of the heirarchy of the United States at the time the engraving was made, but also including John Hughes. This is very similar to 2010.047.061 but with some differences. Many of the portraits are slightly different. John Hughes is the only former member of the heirarchy included. Boniface Wimmer is also included, though he was an abbot and not a bishop. There is no information as to creator, publisher or date.
