EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a powerful moment from the book "Joan of Arc" by Theodore Cahu, beautifully illustrated by Paul De Semant. In this illustration, we witness Joan of Arc as she hears the Archangel Saint Michael delivering the divine order to liberate France. The artist, Semant, skillfully portrays the intensity and determination in Joan's eyes as she receives this holy message. The image transports us back to a significant period in French history - the 100 Year War. Through intricate details such as spinning distaffs and mutton on an altar, we are reminded of the humble origins of Joan, who was just a peasant youth before becoming a pivotal figure in her country's destiny. Semant's engraving expertly captures both the spiritual and military aspects of Joan's mission. We can almost feel her unwavering faith merging with her courage to lead France towards freedom. This portrayal showcases not only Semant's artistic talent but also his deep understanding of historical events. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder, we are transported into the heart of medieval France - where legends were born and heroes emerged. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst chaos and war, individuals like Joan can rise above their circumstances to shape history for generations to come.
