The Inspiration of Joan of Arc
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures the essence of a young shepherdess turned warrior, Joan of Arc. In this engraving by Louis Ducis, we witness the transformative moment when Joan receives her divine calling. The scene unfolds in an outdoor field, where a flock of sheep peacefully grazes under the watchful eye of their shepherdess. Joan stands at the center, bathed in a heavenly glow that emanates from above. Her youthful face is filled with shock and awe as she gazes towards the heavens. A flag flutters beside her, symbolizing her unwavering patriotism and determination to fight for her country. A loyal dog accompanies Joan on this sacred journey, faithfully standing by her side as she embraces her destiny. With a walking stick in hand, she gestures towards an apparition that only she can see - a vision that will guide and inspire her throughout her heroic endeavors. As we contemplate this powerful image, we are reminded of Joan's unwavering faith and courage in the face of adversity. She would go on to lead armies into battle and become known as "The Maid of Orleans" ultimately sacrificing herself for what she believed in. Ducis' masterful engraving beautifully captures both the vulnerability and strength within Joan's character. It serves as a timeless reminder that even ordinary individuals can be called upon to do extraordinary things when they listen closely to their inner voice and embrace their true purpose.
