EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from 1890 depicts Joan of Arc, the iconic French heroine and saint. Created by John Gilbert, a renowned English artist of the time, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent for capturing historical figures with great detail and emotion. Joan of Arc is portrayed here as a triumphant warrior, clad in shining armor and wielding her sword with confidence. The illustration is inspired by William Shakespeare's play "King Henry VI, Part I" where Joan la Pucelle (as she is referred to in the play) plays a significant role. The artist skillfully brings out Joan's strength and determination through his masterful use of shading and composition. Her resolute gaze reflects her unwavering commitment to her cause - defending France against its enemies during the Hundred Years' War. Mounted on a majestic horse adorned with fleur de lis symbols - representing French royalty - Joan stands tall as a symbol of courage and patriotism. This image captures an important moment in history when one woman defied societal norms to lead armies into battle. This lithograph print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a tribute to one of history's most inspiring figures. It reminds us that even in times of adversity, individuals can rise above challenges to make lasting impacts on their nations and inspire future generations.
