Weird cappa alert!
What's that? I know that there are versinos of the cappa magna that have two slits so that the arms can pass through the fabric, but I have never seen a cappa worn quite the way Wilhelmus Petrus Adrianus Maria Mutsaerts, bishop of 's-Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands is wearing his in these photos.

I believe that this photo was taken during a time for penance.
Cardinals or Bishops had to fold up the chain of the cappa magna during the time for penance.
Correct me if i have said it wrongly.
