EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Saint Joan of France and Valois, a figure whose life was filled with both royalty and religious devotion. The engraving, created by Adriaen Collaert in the late 16th or early 17th century, beautifully captures her essence. Saint Joan of France was the daughter of King Louis XI and Charlotte of Savoy. She became the first wife of Louis XII, briefly serving as Queen consort before their divorce. Despite this tumultuous marriage, she went on to become Duchess of Berry and founded a contemplative order of nuns known as the Franciscan order of the Annonciades in Bourges. In this portrait, Saint Joan stands tall with an air of grace and strength. Clad in the habit of the third order of St. Francis, she wears a veil that symbolizes her dedication to God's service. A crown rests upon her head, representing her royal lineage while also acknowledging her spiritual authority. The presence of angelic figures surrounding her signifies divine protection and guidance throughout her journey. Additionally, various instruments associated with Christ's passion are depicted alongside Saint Joan - a testament to her deep faith. With its intricate details and powerful symbolism, this engraving immortalizes Saint Joan's significant contributions to both French history and religious devotion. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst worldly challenges, one can find solace in unwavering faith.
