Cerulean Blue vestments

To mark today’s Feast of the Immaculate Conception Shawn Tribe on the Liturgical Arts Journal returns to a theme he touched upon in his post which I shared in Fifteenth century Blue Vestments given by a future Pope.

The theme is the liturgical use of blue, be it dark blue in the violet and black ( if you are Milanese ) seasons or if you are apparently honouring Our Lady in cerulean Spanish blue. His article, illustrated with some fine vestments from the baroque era, can be seen at Some Cerulean Blue Vestments from Italy
