Joan of Arc, c1880
Joan of Arc, c1880. Nineteenth century representation of the 15th century French patriot and martyr St Joan (1412-1431), before the Dauphin, later Charles VII, at Chinon in 1429. Legend has it that Joan recognised the Dauphin although he was in disguise and this was taken as a sign that she was divinely guided. During the Hundred Years War between England and France (1337-1453), Joan led resistance to the English. In 1430 she was captured by the Burgundians and sold to the English who passed her to the ecclesiastical court of the Inquisition at Rouen. She was tried for heresy and sorcery and burnt at the stake on 30 May 1431. (Colorised black and white print)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This colorized print captures the iconic figure of Joan of Arc, a symbol of bravery and devotion. Dating back to the 19th century, this representation depicts Joan in her historic meeting with the Dauphin, who would later become Charles VII of France. Legend has it that she recognized him even though he was disguised, solidifying her divine guidance. Joan's story unfolds during the tumultuous period known as the Hundred Years War between England and France. She fearlessly led resistance against English forces and became a beacon of hope for her countrymen. However, fate took a dark turn when she was captured by Burgundians in 1430 and subsequently sold to the English. The ecclesiastical court of Rouen held an infamous trial where Joan faced charges of heresy and sorcery. Despite her unwavering faith in God, she was tragically condemned to death by burning at the stake on May 30th, 1431. In this image, we witness Joan kneeling before royalty—a powerful visual representation of loyalty and submission. The colors breathe new life into this historical moment from medieval times, allowing us to connect more intimately with one of history's most revered figures. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, let us remember Joan's indomitable spirit and unwavering dedication to her beliefs—an enduring legacy that continues to inspire generations around the world.
