Coffee Table Books

I Romani Pontefici al Circolo San Pietro is a unique editorial work that gathers over 150 years of history, documented through speeches, allocutions, letters, and autographs of the Popes addressed to the Circolo San Pietro.

The volume is the result of two years of in-depth historical research and pays tribute to the identity and charism of a Sodalizio founded in 1869, highlighting its profound connection with the Holy See.

Among the many remarkable documents, it is especially noteworthy that four Popes were members of the Circolo San Pietro: Benedict XV, Pius XI, the Venerable Pius XII, and Saint Paul VI.

The book offers a rigorous account of the papal magisterium addressed to the members of the Circolo, providing a valuable perspective on its charitable mission and the role of active faith in society.

Curated by Monsignor Franco Camaldo, the work is enriched by exclusive photographic documentation that accompanies the texts with solemn and meaningful images—true visual records of historic moments.

It is a tribute to the tireless service of the Circolo, which for 155 years has cared for the most vulnerable with Christian spirit and discretion.

The edition is presented as a distinguished coffee table book, bound in powder-blue silk-effect paper with gold detailing that lends the volume a discreet yet solemn appearance. It is completed by a printed dust jacket and housed in an elegant slipcase, designed to protect and enhance the work over time.

A collector’s book that combines historiographical rigour, artistic value, and spiritual depth—conceived to preserve and transmit a legacy of faith, culture, and service.
