EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Miss Mary Kingsley as Joan of Arc, a powerful portrayal captured by an English photographer in the 19th century. Dressed in full armor with a sword in hand, she embodies the strength and determination of this legendary historical figure. The photogravure was created for "The Plays of William Shakespeare" edited by Charles and Mary Cowden Clarke, adding a touch of theatricality to the image. Miss Kingsley's intense gaze and commanding presence bring Joan of Arc to life, evoking her bravery on the battlefield. The attention to detail is remarkable; every mesh size on her traditional plate armor is meticulously engraved, highlighting the craftsmanship that went into creating such armoured clothing. The print has been digitally cleaned, preserving its original quality while enhancing its visual impact. In this striking portrait, Miss Mary Kingsley not only captures the essence of Joan of Arc but also pays homage to King Henry VI from Shakespeare's play. The combination of history and literature creates a compelling narrative within this single image. Whether displayed in an art gallery or private collection, this print serves as a reminder of both female empowerment and artistic excellence. It immortalizes Miss Kingsley's talent as an actor while honoring one of history's most iconic heroines.
