Pontiff's Coronation Procession Through St Peter's Followed

Signiors Doria and Mincioni preceded the Pontiff, with Conservators of Rome in red cloaks and gold tissue gowns, while Cardinals Deacons and other clerics escorted the Holy Father to St Peter's, then to the Clementine Chapel where he knelt in prayer.
