| The Renaissance plate of Saint Claire |
The Ceramics Museum art historians found this plate in a flea market, nowadays trendy for shopping.
The name of the Saint is written on the flying ribbon in the same style of the Loving cups. The flying ribbon is also called "banderole".
Saint Claire founded the order of the "Clarisse" (poor Claires) but in Assisi it is possible to find many different orders of monasteries, among which several ones are open to hospitality in their "foresteria".
Our region is also the land of Benedictines, that we like in particular for their motto "Ora et Labora" (tr.pray and work). Saint Benedict is the Saint Patron of Europe and was originally from the town of Norcia, which is worth visiting.
