Archbishop stands at center with white tunic and a blue mozella over his shoulders. Wearing also a large gold cross necklace. His proper right hand rests on a book at lower left corner. Remainder of title: / FIRST ARCHBISHOP OF NEW YORK./ “I believe, that as containing the fulness of divine revelation, the Holy Catholic Church is the only true Church on the earth/ although many true Catholic doctrines are found, floating about, as opinions, in the religious atmosphere of protestantism.”/ This is my Profession of Faith, of the sincerity of which the ALMIGHTY is my witness.
The Most Rev. John Hughes, D.D., Currier & Ives
