EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century print captures the heroic moment when Jeanne Hachette defended the city of Beauvais in 1472. Known as Jeanne Axe, she bravely saved her beloved city from the forces of Charles the Bold of Burgundy. In this stunning artwork, we see Jeanne brandishing an axe, ready to defend her home at all costs. The scene depicted here is a pivotal one - an enemy soldier had planted a flag on Beauvais soil, symbolizing their impending conquest. However, undeterred by fear or doubt, Jeanne swiftly killed the soldier and tore down the flag with unwavering determination. Her courageous act ensured that Beauvais remained defended until reinforcements arrived. This chromolithograph card was part of a series produced by the chocolate factory at the Monastery of Aiguebelle. It beautifully showcases not only Jeanne's bravery but also highlights various elements of medieval warfare and fortification. Jeanne Hachette's story resonates even today as a testament to female empowerment and resilience during challenging times. She stands tall on top of battlements, clad in armor and surrounded by rocks - symbols of strength and endurance. As we admire this collectible print, let us remember Jeanne Hachette's indomitable spirit and honor her legacy as a true heroine who fought for her people and defended their freedom against all odds.
