Saint picture quiz 4
I was going to inform Andrew that he has a strange notion of how to spell the name of Saint Clare of Assisi, but then I realized that our Italian seminarian was giving her Italian name. And here I'd thought Chiara (and its many variations) was merely a modern, trendy, made-up name! So the answer to the last quiz is St. Clare (or Santa Chiara), and there's an explanation here of why she holds a monstrance.
