EDITORS COMMENTS
This image of Joan of Arc, created by the renowned English painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti in 1863, is a testament to the enduring fascination with the legendary Maid of Orléans. Rossetti, a prominent member of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, was known for his meticulous attention to detail and his exploration of mythology and literature in his work. Joan of Arc, depicted here in an oil on canvas painting, is shown in a moment of profound contemplation, her gaze fixed on an unseen horizon. Dressed in the armor of a warrior, she exudes a sense of strength and determination, embodying the mythic figure of a martyr and a heroine of French history. The Hundred Years War, during which Joan of Arc played a pivotal role, is evoked through the use of rich, earthy tones and the somber, atmospheric background. Rossetti's interpretation of Joan of Arc is both allegorical and literary, drawing on the various legends and stories that surrounded the historical figure. The painting is now a cherished part of the collection at the Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain in Strasbourg, France, and continues to captivate audiences with its evocative portrayal of a legendary figure from history and mythology.
