Engraving of a pope seated under a canopy, a kneeling friar with a halo before him, and robed onlookers in a tiled hall.

Saint Francis Kneeling Before Pope Innocent III, Engraving

A bearded pope in a white robe and red cap sits under a canopy at left, gesturing toward a kneeling friar in a brown habit with a halo. Cardinals and onlookers in dark robes watch from the tiled hall, and a framed landscape hangs on the brick wall. Latin captions run along the lower edge of the print.
