The picture shows Pope Leo XIII sitting on his throne surrounded by other pictures relevant to his life (clockwise): St Thomas Aquinas as this Pope introduced the revival of Thomistic theology when in 1879 he established the Pontifical Academy of St Thomas Aquinas; his papal insignia being carried by two cherubins; Our Lady of the Rosary since he favoured great devotion to this prayer and became known as the Pope of the Rosary; an archangel probably Michael to whom Pope Leo wrote a prayer; the Lateran apse as it was during his pontificate that it was renewed; a drawing depicting his sacerdotal consecration, the Pontifical Lazzaretto as during the fifth cholera epidemic in Rome in 1891 he ordered the building of a hospice in the Vatican for all those affected; and a picture of a nun with the Holy Eucharist in her hand since Pope Leo XIII wrote several encyclicals about the Eucharist.
