Pope Leo XIV: The Election of a Pope in Pictures

Experience the moment the Church turned a new page in history.

In this unforgettable commemorative volume, the story of the papal interregnum—the death of Pope Francis, the world’s mourning, the secret conclave, and the election of Pope Leo XIV—comes vividly to life.

Through breathtaking photography and inspiring reflections, you’ll walk step by step through this time of grace and transition. From the solemn days of mourning to the white smoke that announces Habemus Papam, every page invites you deeper into the mystery, majesty, and hope that define the life of the Church.

Discover:

The reverence of the Church during the sede vacante, when the See of Peter stands empty

The drama and dignity of the conclave beneath Michelangelo’s Last Judgment

The joy of the faithful as Pope Leo XIV begins his pontificate

The first words, blessings, and symbols of a new shepherd for the world

The striking coat of arms that reveals the heart of the new pope’s mission

Beautifully designed and rich with meaning, this keepsake volume is more than a record of historic events—it is a journey of faith, showing how God’s providence guides His Church from sorrow to renewal, from loss to radiant hope.

A perfect gift for every Catholic, this book captures a once-in-a-generation moment when the Church stands united, inspired, and always moving sempre avanti—always forward.
