...Rogier van der Weyden [April 5] you have a reproduction of a portrait with the title "St. Ivo of Chartres." There seems to be some confusion here. France's Ivo (Yves de Chartres) wrote collections of canon law, but it was St. Yves of Brittany who was the patron saint of lawyers and is renowned for his defense of the poor and for free legal aid to the peasants.
