Drawing in ink on cardboard in minimalist style inspired by Saint Clare of Assisi (1194 - 1253) who, before dying, dictated her Testament: a vibrant praise to God and a heartfelt exhortation to the Poor Clares to continue on a journey of faith. At the end of her life, Clare's last wish was to have the Pope approve the form of life she had composed and long lived in the footsteps of Christ, through the mediation of the example of St. Francis: "Observe the holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ...". These words opened the legislative text that Clare composed and Pope Innocent IV approved on August 9, 1253, a few days before her death.
