A ceramic mosaic of St Francis of Assisi by renowned Kraków-born artist Jerzy Nowosielski, has been inscribed onto a register of movable cultural property for its artistic and historic significance. CE Report quoting The First News

The mosaic, which dates from 1980 and was discovered last year on the territory of the St. Francis of Assisi Parish in the Warsaw district of Izabelin, depicts the stigmatization of St Francis, when, lost in prayer on mount La Verna, the Saint had a vision of a crucified seraph, which resulted in him receiving the stigmata.
