Pope Francis's last public appearance on Easter Sunday
Pope Francis's last public appearance was for an Easter Sunday blessing at the Vatican's St Peter's Square.
It had been unknown at the time if the pontiff would join the service following his discharge from hospital last month, after five weeks of treatment for an infection that led to double pneumonia.
He has died at the age of 88.
