Scope and content

The sepia-coloured picture shows the Pope surrounded by various Cardinals opening the Holy Door (Porta Santa) which is opened every 25 years in the Jubilee Year. Above this, there is depicted in a cloud Jesus Christ giving the Keys to St Peter. The picture is set in a guilded border. This is a memento of the giving of the tonsure (the first step towards priesthood) and the installation of the first minor orders to Fr Carmelus Busuttil as lector and porter. At the top one finds - "I am your portion and your inheritance" - reflecting a quote from the Book of Numbers 18: 20.
