  • This large-format broadside was probably issued to commemorate and popularize the canonization of Charles Borromeo (1538-1584) in November of 1610. Borromeo was a crucial interlocutor during the final sessions of the Council of Trent and also undertook many reforming practices while serving as the Archbishop of Milan. Although the engraving was printed in Antwerp, the text including the detailed captions demonstrate that it was intended for an Italian audience. Several of the vignettes depict Borromeo’s heroic behavior during the plague of 1576-78, during which he donated much of his personal wealth and personally administered the Sacrament to dying plague victims.
