He (St. Francis ndr) had the love of gay and bright apparel which was inherent in the heraldic taste of medieval times and seems altogether to have been rather a festive figure. If he did not paint the town red, he would probably have preferred to paint it all the colours of the rainbow, as in a medieval picture.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton, St. Francis of Assisi.
