- Lot Description
European, France, ca. 18th century. A charming painting of Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc), the heroine of the Hundred Years' War and later a canonized Roman Catholic saint, kneeling with her hands pressed together in a prayerful gesture, her feathered helmet removed and sitting on the ground before her so that we can see her expressive visage, amidst a finely delineated landscape replete with rolling hills, mountainsides, leafy trees, and tiny staffage figures, including a horse and rider in the middle distance. This composition was painted on either leather or a thin wooden board, framed by a gold leaf border with impressed circular motifs, and set upon a wooden board that was painted with a Neoclassical motif inspired by Fourth Style Roman wall paintings with gold floral and vessel motifs against a black ground. This is surrounded by a border identical to the inner gold leaf border that 'frames' the Joan of Arc painting. Size: 8.25" W x 5.875" H (21 cm x 14.9 cm); mount measures 10.25" W x 8.3" H (26 cm x 21.1 cm)
Joan of Arc (Jeanne d'Arc), the Maid of Orleans, was an illiterate villager canonized by the Roman Catholic Church for her military leadership - which she said was guided by visions from God - during the Hundred Years War. Tragically, she was burned at the stake as a martyr (and enemy combatant). An unusual figure with a striking story, Joan of Arc has inspired women and men for generations.
