Located above the chapel of St. Rose of Lima is the window that portrays the scene in Rome in 1854 when Pope Pius IX proclaimed the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. The Pope is depicted blessing the world and holding in his left hand the decree of that pronouncement. He is surrounded by cardinals, bishops, and religious figures.
