Priests

Priests, at Madrid, 1845. 'From gay to grave: a specimen of the Spanish clergy, who never appear in public without the capa, which, as it has no cape, is, in fact, a long black gown. Raphael has painted St. Paul in the cartoon, when preaching at Athens, wearing his cloak exactly as the Spanish people do at this moment. Whatever may be said of the capa, nothing can be more grotesque than the long projecting hat worn by the priesthood'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII. Artist Unknown.
