1412 1431 Foliage Jeanne Joan Sees
EDITORS COMMENTS
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc), the legendary heroine of France, is depicted in this enchanting 15th-century print as she encounters angels hidden amongst the foliage of a tree. The exact date of this image is uncertain, with some historians suggesting it may have been created around 1412, during Joan's early visions, while others believe it could be from as late as 1431, the year of her execution. Joan of Arc, a peasant girl from Domrémy, France, claimed to have received divine messages from the saints Margaret, Catherine, and Michael since her childhood. These visions instructed her to lead the French army against the English during the Hundred Years' War. This print captures the pivotal moment when Joan, clad in armor and carrying her banner, pauses to listen intently to the angels' guidance. The ethereal figures, their wings spread wide, emerge from the lush foliage, their faces serene and benevolent. The tree, with its intricate branches and vibrant leaves, frames the scene, creating a sense of enchantment and otherworldliness. The delicate balance between the earthly and the divine is beautifully captured in this evocative image. The print's muted colors and fine details evoke the artistic style of the period, transporting us back to the medieval world and the extraordinary life of Joan of Arc. This print is a testament to the enduring legacy of Joan of Arc and the profound impact she had on French history. Her courage, faith, and unwavering belief in her divine mission continue to inspire generations, making her a symbol of hope and resilience.
