EDITORS COMMENTS
This miniature painting, hailing from the Spanish Royal Library of the Monastery of El Escorial in Madrid, portrays John V Bueil, a noble Frenchman who played a pivotal role in the military campaign of Joan of Arc during the Hundred Years War. The scene unfolds in a bustling city square, with John V, dressed in full armor and brandishing a sword, engaged in fierce combat. The backdrop of the painting is the historic siege of Orleans in 1429, a turning point in the war that ultimately led to the French victory. The intricate details of this Gothic art masterpiece, taken from the manuscript Le Jouvencel (1461-1466), evoke a sense of intensity and heroism. The vertical composition, rich colors, and dynamic grouping of people add depth and drama to the scene. This painting is a testament to the courage and valor of John V Bueil and the significant impact of Joan of Arc on French history.
