[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note [Italian]
The procedures relating to the election of the Pope have undergone almost two millennia of development. Procedures similar to the present system were introduced in 1274 with the Second Council of Lyons after the three-year interregnum of 1268-1271.
The long interregnum following the death of Clement IV in 1268 caused Gregory X in Viterbo city. After 33 months of interregnum, citizen locked the electors in seclusion (con-clave), their food rationed and unroofed episcopal palace... They choosed a candidate in little days.
