Stake attention in this memory
A commemorative plaque, consisting of two distinct parts, is affixed to a plain, light-colored wall in what appears to be an indoor setting. The larger, left section is a parallelogram-shaped plaque made of mottled green stone, possibly marble. It features a bronze bas-relief portrait of a man in profile, facing left, set against a golden circular background. The man, presumably Saint Casimir, has a solemn expression and is depicted with a high collar. Below and to the right of the portrait, bronze raised letters spell "SANCTUS CASIMIRUS" and "1458-1484," indicating his name and lifespan. Four decorative bronze or copper screws or caps secure the plaque to the wall. To the right, a smaller, rectangular plaque of similar green stone features a golden metal plate with black etched text. The top of the plate displays a small crest or emblem and the phrases "ORDO SANCTI CASIMIRI" and "SV. KAZIMIERO ORDINAS." Below this, "D O M" is inscribed, followed by "IN MEMORIAM QUINGENTESIMI TRICESIMI QUINTI ANNIVERSARII AB MORTE S. CASIMIRI PRINCIPIS IN CIVITATE GRODNENSI." This Latin inscription translates to "In memory of the five hundred thirty-fifth anniversary of the death of Saint Casimir, Prince, in the city of Grodno." The plaque commemorates Saint Casimir, Prince of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, and specifically marks the 535th anniversary of his death in Hrodna (Grodno), Belarus. The overall appearance is formal and respectful, typical of historical markers.
