EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the iconic Joan of Arc, also known as Jeand Arc, during the historic Siege of Paris in France. A revered folk heroine and Roman Catholic saint, Joan was born into humble beginnings as a peasant girl in eastern France. Guided by what she believed to be divine intervention, she fearlessly led the French army to numerous significant victories throughout the tumultuous Hundred Years War. Joan's unwavering determination and strategic brilliance paved the way for Charles VII of France to be crowned king. However, her remarkable journey took a tragic turn when she was captured by the Burgundians and subsequently sold to the English for money. Imprisoned and put on trial by Bishop Pierre Cauchon, who sympathized with pro-English sentiments, Joan faced charges of insubordination and heterodoxy. Despite her valiant defense against these accusations, she was unjustly condemned. The engraved image presented here captures an important moment in history using an illustrative technique that showcases both skillful engravement and 19th-century style. Its retro-styled aesthetic adds a touch of vintage charm while paying homage to this extraordinary figure from our past. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a powerful reminder of Joan of Arc's indomitable spirit and enduring legacy within art, culture, and history itself.
