This panel painting, titled *Saint Clare*, was created circa 1330 by the Sienese master Lippo Memmi, also documented as Filippo di Memmo. The artwork depicts Clare of Assisi, who founded the Poor Clares and was canonized in 1255. Memmi produced this image in Siena, Italy, likely for a Franciscan church such as San Francesco as part of a larger altarpiece. Active from 1317 to 1356, the artist was Simone Martini’s brother-in-law and worked within the Sienese Gothic tradition that rivaled Florentin
