EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print depicts the powerful moment of the Archangel Michael's apparition to Joan of Arc at Domremy in 1425. Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 19th century, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of this historical event. In this image, we see a young girl, Joan of Arc, kneeling before St. Michael, who appears to her as a radiant figure with majestic wings. The scene is set amidst a pastoral landscape with sheep grazing nearby, emphasizing Joan's humble origins as a shepherdess. The educational card from which this print originates suggests its purpose was to instruct and inspire viewers about Joan's extraordinary role during the Hundred Years War. She is portrayed here as both a heroine and patriot for France, receiving divine guidance and carrying out her mission with unwavering faith. The composition evokes a sense of awe and reverence as Joan gazes up at St. Michael while he imparts his message or vision upon her. This encounter marked a turning point in history and solidified Joan's place as the Maid of Orleans. With its rich symbolism and attention to detail, this chromolitho print not only serves as an artistic masterpiece but also offers us insight into medieval religious beliefs and the significance of visionary experiences during that time period. Overall, this image invites us to reflect on courage, faith, and destiny while celebrating one woman's remarkable journey that forever changed the course of history.
