EDITORS COMMENTS
Joan of Arc, also known as Jeanne d'Arc or the Maid of Orléans, is depicted in this stunning 19th-century painting by German artist Hans Makart, titled "Joan of Arc - Seeing the Vision of Mary." The historical scene illustrates a pivotal moment in the life of this legendary French heroine, who lived from 1412 to 1431. At the age of thirteen, Joan claimed to have received her first divine message from the archangel Michael, Saint Catherine, and Saint Margaret, instructing her to support Charles VII, the future King of France, in his fight against the English occupation. In this painting, Joan is shown in a pastoral setting, with a shepherd's crook in her hand, as she gazes up at the Virgin Mary, who appears to her in the sky. Mary blesses Joan, granting her divine approval and the strength to carry out her mission. The painting, created in 1855, is a masterpiece of historical art that captures the essence of Joan's mystical experiences and her deep connection to her faith. The use of rich colors, intricate details, and dramatic lighting creates a powerful and moving image that continues to inspire awe and admiration. Joan of Arc's story is one of courage, determination, and divine intervention. She led the French army to several important victories during the Hundred Years' War, including the Battle of Orléans, which is credited with turning the tide of the war in France's favor. Joan was eventually captured by the English and burned at the stake in 1431, but her legacy as a national heroine and a symbol of French resistance lived on. This painting serves as a testament to her enduring spirit and the profound impact she had on history.
