EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Pope Joan (Johanna) with her child" transports us back to the 17th century, where a legendary tale unfolds. The image depicts Pope Joan, also known as Johanna, adorned in papal regalia and wearing a tiara. She cradles her baby in her arms, showcasing the remarkable juxtaposition of motherhood and religious authority. According to medieval European chronicles from the 13th century, Pope Joan was believed to have reigned as Pope around the year 1100. The legend tells of an extraordinary woman who disguised herself as a man and ascended to the highest position within the Catholic Church. It is said that she even gave birth while riding on horseback during one of her papal processions. However, it is important to note that this story has been widely regarded as fictitious by modern scholars. Nevertheless, this engraving captures our imagination and invites us into a world where history intertwines with myth. The artist behind this piece remains anonymous but showcases their skill through intricate details such as the delicate features of both mother and child and the ornate crown atop Pope Joan's head. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how legends can shape our perception of history and challenge societal norms.
