Prince Rainier III (wearing the Order of Saint-Charles and the Order of Grimaldi) and Princess Grace of Monaco (in the Bains de Mer Tiara, Diamond Necklace, and the Order of Saint-Charles) are received by Pope John XXIII at the Apostolic Palace during their State Visit to the Vatican on this day in 1959, during their State Visit to Italy.
That is Pope Pius XII not John XXIII.
Why no Privilege du Blanc for Grace? Was it because she was not born a Catholic?
