Pope Callixtus III (1378-1458): A Vision of Spiritual and Temporal Authority This enchanting portrait captures the essence of Pope Callixtus III, born Alfons de Borja, who reigned as the Bishop of Rome from 1455 to 1458. Hailing from the Spanish region of Borja in Aragon, Callixtus III was the first Pope from the Iberian Peninsula since the late 13th century. The intricately detailed engraving, colored with remarkable artistry, showcases the Pope's regal attire and solemn expression. He is depicted wearing the traditional papal tiara, signifying his spiritual authority, and the papal robes adorned with gold and ermine fur, symbolizing his temporal power. The background features an elaborate architectural setting, possibly St. Peter's Basilica, further emphasizing the grandeur of the papacy. Callixtus III's papacy was marked by significant events in both the Catholic Church and European history. He played a pivotal role in the Council of Siena, which aimed to restore peace and unity within the Church following the Western Schism. Additionally, he authorized the founding of the Society of Jesus, the first religious order to be approved during the Renaissance period. This image offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the rich history of the Catholic Church and the influential figure of Pope Callixtus III. The intricate engraving and vibrant colors serve as a testament to the artistic mastery of the 15th century, making it a valuable addition to any collection of European art or religious history.
