The Latin phrase Sic Transit Gloria Mundi (“Thus passes the glory of the world”) appears beside it on a black background. Original artwork by Ivy Malone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe phrase is best known from the traditional papal coronation ceremony, used from 1409 until the mid-20th century. As the newly elected pope was carried through St. Peter’s Basilica, the procession stopped three times. A master of ceremonies would kneel, hold a reed with a tuft of smoldering flax, and as it burned away to nothing, proclaim: “Pater Sancte, sic transit gloria mundi!” meaning, “Holy Father, thus passes the glory of the world.” It is a solemn reminder that all worldly glory eventually fades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatte finish, heavyweight, archival-quality giclée print signed by the artist, with the option of hand-embellished gold foil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCopyright ©2026 Ivy Malone.
