EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the historic moment of the Capture of Joan of Arc on 25 May 1430. Taken from A Chronicle of England BC 55 to AD 1485, published in London in 1863, this color lithograph by James William Edmund Doyle showcases the intense scene with remarkable detail. Joan of Arc, also known as "The Maid of Orleans" is seen here being apprehended by the Burgundians while valiantly defending Compiegne near Paris. Sold to the English after her capture, Joan had previously led several successful operations against them, fueled by her visions and prophecies. In this image, we witness a powerful juxtaposition between strength and vulnerability. The armored figure of Joan stands tall amidst a chaotic battlefield filled with flags and standards representing both sides. Her sword still firmly grasped in hand symbolizes her unwavering determination even in dire circumstances. Surrounded by knights and dukes who have subdued her, Joan's capture marks a turning point in history. This significant event during the Middle Ages altered the course of French-British relations forever. The artist beautifully captures not only historical accuracy but also conveys emotions through his portrayal. From horses galloping nearby to men surrendering their weapons, every element adds depth to this poignant moment frozen in time. This print from Fine Art Finder serves as a reminder of Joan's bravery and resilience that continues to inspire generations worldwide.
