Fast forward to 1900-1918, when Frank Craig captures her essence in his masterpiece titled "The Maid. " With piercing eyes and a resolute expression, she stands tall amidst adversity, embodying strength and resilience. Jeanne Labrousse's rendition of Joan of Arc from c1900 (1918) transports us back to the fifteenth century.

"The Crowning at Rheims, " painted by an unknown artist in 1907, immortalizes one of Joan's most triumphant moments.

In this painting from the "Joan of Arc series: II, " we witness her fervent plea for justice—an impassioned call that still resonates today. Mounted on horseback clad in armor—this iconic image has become synonymous with Joan's legacy. Created between c. 1908-late 1909 by an anonymous artist for the "Joan of Arc series: III, " it encapsulates her unwavering determination and fearlessness.
