16th-17th Century Pontifical Vestments from the Sistine Chapel

On a recent visit to the Sistine Chapel I came across this rather splendid set of vestments.  The set is, not surprisingly, a solemn pontifical set, complete with chasuble, cope, dalmatic and tunicle -- and also an antependium. Regrettably, very little information was provided but based upon its characteristics, I would place it as late 16th or earlier 17th century.

Let's take a look, beginning with the cope.

The hood/shield of the cope depicts the sacrifice of Abraham; symbolically fitting, of course, given its typological reference to the Sacrifice of Christ and the Sacrifice of the Mass.

The entire bottom edge of the cope is fringed; this feature is not so commonly seen in our own time.

The arms shown here, found at the base of the cope, are those of Pope Clement VIII (1592-1605) 

Next we turn to the chasuble with the distinctive bell shape of the era in question.  One can see in this the evolutionary "middle ground" that sat between the fuller gothic form of chasuble and that of the classic baroque form.

Seen here in the detail fo the front of the chasuble is an image of Christ scourged and the Veil of Veronica

Finally, the dalmatic and tunicle:

Some select details from the same:

The Annunciation

The Three Magi present gold, frankincense and myrrh to the newborn Christ Child

The Keys given to St. Peter

Do take note of the fringe also lining the edge of the dalmatic and tunicle

An example of a stole and maniple from the set. Do note the scourges found on the maniples. 

Finally, here too is the antependium (or altar frontal) that matches the set:
