* Agnes of Assisi, virgin (1253)
- sister of St Claire of Assisi; abbess of convent of Monticelli in
Paris, she supervised many foundations
I faintly recall a brief association of Agnes with Monteluce, the convent
of the Poor Clares in Perugia; but surely you don't mean Paris? Who now
believes that Giotto learned to paint there; or that Dante attended its
great University, perhaps sitting at the feet of Aquinas!
