The Vatican has unveiled the first image and video of Pope Francis lying in state, clad in red liturgical attire. The 88-year-old pontiff passed away due to a cerebral stroke, according to Dr. Andrea Arcangeli. In a departure from the customary practice of interring popes at St Peter’s Basilica, Pope Francis expressed his wish for a simple burial at the Papal Basilica of St Mary Major.
