Step into a bygone era with this print from Bain News Service's archives. Dating between c1910 and c1915, this photograph captures Pope's carriage in all its ornate glory. The gleaming black horses, adorned with intricate harnesses, draw the majestic vehicle through the streets of Washington D.C., leaving a trail of elegance behind. The papal carriage is a testament to the opulence and grandeur that defined early 20th-century America.
