The Vatican hosted a surprise meeting. The world‑famous singer and songwriter Bob Dylan was received by Pope 14. Leo as part of the program in Rome.

Last month, the meeting between the Pope, who had a lung tumor removed, and the 85‑year‑old artist lasted only briefly. However, the encounter entered the headlines because of the gifts exchanged and Dylan’s unconventional outfit choice.

They Gave Each Other Meaningful Gifts

During the interview, Pope 14. Leo presented Bob Dylan with a rosary. The famed musician, in turn, offered the Pope a signed copy of his autobiography.

He Chose a Black Outfit From Head to Toe

One of the most talked‑about details of the meeting was Dylan’s appearance. The 85‑year‑old artist attended the Vatican visit in a black hoodie, gloves, and umbrella.

Dylan, dressed head‑to‑toe in black, had an unconventional style that became one of the highlights of the visit.

He had also met the Pope before.

Bob Dylan's meeting with a Pope is not a first. The famous artist had taken the stage before Pope John Paul II and about 300,000 young people at an event held in Bologna, Italy, in 1997.

Before greeting the Pope at that event, Dylan had performed several songs, including 'Knockin' on Heaven's Door'.
