EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the historic moment of the opening session of the Second Vatican Council in Rome. The focus is on Archbishop Alfonso Carinci, a remarkable 99-year-old Italian clergyman who graced this significant event with his presence. As the oldest bishop attending, he symbolizes wisdom and experience. Dressed in traditional ecclesiastical attire, Archbishop Carinci stands tall with an air of dignity and reverence. His weathered face tells stories of a life dedicated to faith and service. With one hand raised in blessing, he exudes a sense of spiritual authority that commands respect. The backdrop for this momentous occasion is none other than St. Peter's Basilica itself – an awe-inspiring testament to centuries of religious history. This iconic location serves as a reminder that within these hallowed walls, profound discussions took place during those months from October to December 1962. The Second Vatican Council was groundbreaking as it aimed to bridge the gap between the Roman Catholic Church and the modern world. It sought to address contemporary issues while upholding timeless values cherished by millions worldwide. Bela Zola's expertly captured portrait immortalizes not only Archbishop Carinci but also captures the essence of an era marked by change and progress within religious institutions.
