Hl. Richard Plaque

This antique plaque is a great statement piece, showcasing a beautiful illustration of Saint Richard and a fascinating look into his life. He is depicted as the patron saint of cab drivers. Saint Richard, born in 1197, studied law, then theology and served as the Chancellor to the Archbishop of Canterbury before becoming Bishop of Chichester. Richard was a strong advocate for the poor, reforming the education of the clergy and spreading the word of God. His grave site was eventually destroyed, but many relics remain, as well as a wealth of legend about the miracles attributed to this influential holy man. This decorative plaque is crafted with a simple wooden frame, giving it a classic yet modern feel.
