Tu es Sacerdos in Aeternum [You Are a Priest Forever]

Tu es Sacerdos in Aeternum [You Are a Priest Forever]

In the center is a scene of ordination to the priesthood. Above is Jesus and God the Father. On the four corners are scenes that appear to be the stages toward ordination. Printed in bottom left of lithograph: "Colin del.". Printed in bottom center of lithograph: "Imprime par Lemercier, a Paris". Printed in bottom right of lithograph: "Geoffroy lith.". Printed below title: "Publie par Daniel et C'[--]editeurs, Paris Rue Bonaparte, 76, Au St. Coeur de Marie. Anceienne [M]aison Victor Janet, Propriete Deposee 1."

There is a section with the dates of the four stages toward ordination and the ordination date of February 22, 1945 for Rev. Thomas Wooten of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia.

The lithograph was likely printed earlier than 1945 as a template and was filled in with the dates of Reverend Wooten's ordination.
