Born in Chicago in 1955, Prevost has strong ties to Peru and was appointed Prefect for the Dicastery for Bishops by Pope Francis in 2023. The article explores the secretive process of the papal conclave, noting that 133 cardinals voted under Michelangelo's famed ceilings, and draws parallels to the 2024 film *Conclave* which some cardinals reportedly used for insight.

The art of being Pope Leo: from a Raphael portrait to the first pontiff to be captured on film

The article examines the artistic and historical legacy of popes named Leo, following the election of Robert Prevost as Pope Leo XIV on 8 May. It traces the name through figures like Leo I (Leo the Great), Leo IX, and Leo X, focusing on Raphael's iconic 1518-20 portrait of Pope Leo X with cardinals Giulio de' Medici and Luigi de Rossi. The piece also discusses Raphael's frescoes in the Vatican's Stanze and Loggia, which depict earlier Leonine popes, and highlights the Medici family's role in bankrolling the Renaissance.

The mural, located near Section 140, features the pope in regalia with hands raised, above a screenshot from the Fox broadcast showing him in White Sox gear alongside his friend Ed Schmit. The artwork honors both the papal election and Schmit, a lifelong Sox fan who died in 2020 and had predicted Prevost would become pope.
