Francis of Assisi, was an Italian mystic, poet andCatholic friar who founded the religious order of the Franciscans. He wasinspired to lead a Christian life of poverty as a beggar and itinerantpreacher. One of the most venerated figures in Christianity, Francis wascanonized by Pope Gregory IX on 16 July 1228. He is commonly portrayed wearinga brown habit with a rope tied around his waist, featuring three knots thatsymbolize the three Franciscan vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience.
