Now that is a challenge. He wears a simar (cassock with cape (usually bishops wear it), and a surplice with Roman yoke (the square or rectangular cut to pass over the head when vesting) on which he has hooked the pectoral cross, and consequently make it look like a risque cleavage. He is probably not a bishop (no skullcap and weird pectoral)but some sort of canon.
No, he's not a bishop. I also don't think he's a canon. As far as I know he is only the priest of St. Bridgets parish in Gdansk (This seems to be an important parish with no small amount of income, which the prelate used to finance a somewhat more than lavish lifestyle).
Non รจ la prima volta che vedo un misto tra abito piano e abito corale, ma la pellegrina sopra la mozzetta era qualche cosa che ancora mi mancava. Mi domando se, da un punto di vista liturgico, abbia un senso.
Does ANYBODY have ANY idea, what Polish prelate Henryk Jankowski is wearing here?

ReplyDeleteThe cross seems to be the Grand Cross of the order of Saint Stanislas.
