Suffragettes in the United States channeled the image of Joan of Arc in the women's March for the Vote in Washington, DC in 1913. Inez did not claim to be Joan, but presented herself as 'the Herald' or 'the Woman on a Horse'. The British suffragettes had already claimed Joan as their patron saint, some of them wearing armor as an expression of their determination to fight for the vote. Joan was beatified in 1909 and her 500th birthday was in 1912. Similar to Joan, Inez died young, in the midst of delivering a speech for female suffrage. She was 30.

I chose this image because I came across it at the Chicago Art Institute and thought this was a great way to portray Joan as a visionary sent from God. The golden bust and the crown makes her seem holy and at peace.

I thought this image of Joan was really interesting and unique. She seems a lot more feminine in this image than in most. She seems to be wearing this mix of s dress and armor. The crown of light around her head is really symbolic of her sainthood and can be seen on images of Jesus, Mary, and other saints.

I chose this picture because it shows Joan in armor that is supposed to be for males, yet still shows her femininity. This image of Joan depicts her as a warrior and also reminds us that she was a devout Christian. This is shown by Joan placing one of her hands on the altar and the other hand holding her flag. This image also depicts Joan as a saint by showing an aureole behind her head.

This image of Joan reveals her true purity and by having her eyes closed with her head facing up, it shows that she embraces what she believes in. She is not trying to rebel against what her faith is telling her to do. The white drape represents the innocence that she has. Also, since it is wrapped around her, it signifies that she is protected by the divine since she had no control over her actions or how she was to be portrayed. She is wearing male armor which is extremely against the womanly standards, but she does not seem not mind since her face presents her as relaxed and soothed by her faith.

This image of Joan represents her strength by showing she is a leader. That's because she is holding up her flag and also is dressed in full armor just as any other solider would be. She isn't wearing the head peace as she rarely to never did. There is no feminine aspect of this since her hair is cut short like a male and isn't wearing women clothing of the time. The castle is staged in the back which represents that she has an army behind her that is powerful and ready for war if needed. Also, just her facial expression shows she has faith and isn't scared of whats to come since she knows she has God by her side

As a gamer myself, I found it interesting that there was a game based on our heroine, Joan d'Arc. She is very well known in the West, but it is important to remember that her tale has been told overseas and that other cultures might have a different version of her. In this picture, Joan is portrayed as a powerful figure in the sense that she holds a sword (which may or may not be covered in blood), fully armored and looking up in the sky on the battlefield from which we can assume she won. Immediately, my attention is drawn to the sword as it is a symbol of power, but it is also a symbol of violence. Joan herself admits to wielding one, but she preferred her banner over it, which showed her peaceful nature. This has it seem that Joan was a mighty warrior in the sense that she killed many. It is also clear, however, that in this portrayal of her, that it is clear that Joan is a woman. Her armor clearly shows that as her breasts are clearly defined (and protected) by the plate armor around it and the bottom half of her armor looks like a ripped up skirt. While she does have very short hair in this image, it is important to note that her hair not only still looks feminine, but is blonde as well. I believe that while she is portrayed as a strong figure, the designer for Joan made it very clear that she was in fact a woman and incorporated as many womanly features as they could, which to me shows the importance of beauty in Japanese culture.

In this image it seems as if Joan is receiving messages from an angel and possibly Mary. It shows Joan's devoutness, with her posture it shows obedience and loyalty. Also, i thought it was really interesting how the artist decided to depict Joan in a dress with a shepherds staff showing her more vulnerable and feminine side rather than armor like most other images of Joan are drawn. Also with this image of the message being received, compared to other images, this one does not look at "crazy" or hellish and scary as the others. For example a lot of other depictions of her visions are dark and seem to be very dramatic and dream like however, this image shows to be more straightforward. I looks as if she receives the message straight from the mouth of the angel and is not to be confused as a dream because of the interaction and connection between the angels and Joan seem to be very authentic.

This image represents Joan as she is listening to the voices she is hearing. Behind her and to the right of her, indicates the Saints that speak to her through these voices. The artist is trying to show the audience how complicated it might feel to Joan as she is hearing these voices and not knowing what the message is. The artist paints with neutral colors and shows the blank stare in Joan's face meaning that she is listening to what her voices have to say. She also believes that God is speaking to her Himself, so she is paying attention to what He is saying.

This image shows Joan heading into battle or already in battle. She is dressed in full armor like the other soldiers. She appears to be the person leading her soldiers into this battle because she is on a horse while the men are fighting. Her hair is short and she is holding her banner. This image is portraying Joan as more masculine.

This image of Joan on a vintage French postcard reminded me of how women in the 1920s during the Prohibition Era adapted her short hairstyle to assert their strength and independence. The image also uses details to emphasize Joan's holy nature, through the use of a halo (as used by many artists to indicate sainthood or proximity to God). By combining historically accurate elements (hair, dress, sword) and new age beauty standards, the artist has created a distinct portrayal of Joan of Arc.

This image shows Joan receiving a vision from the Archangel Michael. Joan is clearly in awe upon receiving this message. I think this piece is interesting, as most that I see show her once she began following these instructions, and don't show her origin. This image, however, shows Joan as a simple young woman, making her transformation more significant. A faint halo can also be seen around her head, showing that she is holy, but this is not yet as strong as it is in other images when she begins following these orders and when she becomes a saint.

I chose this statue because this is an image of Joan of Arc that I grew up seeing and how I have always pictured her. She is shown is full armor, although with more of a shirt at the bottom. Her hair is short, but on the longer side of short. It seems as though from the neck up, Joan is portrayed as more masculine while from the neck down she is portrayed as more feminine. Joan is show holding on to her flag tightly in one hand and he other hand is over her heart. Her head is tilted up and that, combined with the hand over her heart, can be seen as her talking to God.

I chose this picture of Joan of Arc because her clothing puts emphasis on the fact that she was only a peasant girl, not a trained soldier or a rich daughter of someone important. It also shows that she is in armor and with a sword to show her fierce side. In contrast, her gaze up to heaven shows her innocence and love and trust in God, as do her crossed arms, as if she was saying she was not worthy.

I choose this picture because it shows the passion she had to lead an army but she isn't holding her weapon. Instead of having her sword out she is holding her banner to show that she would rather have peace than fight each other, she doesn't pull out her sword unless she really needs to fight. This image is interesting with the artist having a dress showing from under her armor and her hair is long. This would show the artist wanted to express how she was a female and they could lead an army as well as any man.

I chose this picture of Joan of Arc because it shows her dressed in battle attire. It shows how she is ready for battle. This image also portrays her with her shorter hair which helps show how she was trying to gain the respect of the men. The light in the background helps indicate how God is with her and watching over her. This picture includes the sword and armor to show how fierce and brave she was. This helped painter her as a leader in others eyes. She is looking to the sky which also shows her innocents and seeking for guidance within God.

In this picture, Joan looks like she is leading the army into battle. She is not waiting on the sidelines for the battle to be over; she is in the middle of the battle, wearing armor, carrying a sword, and carrying her banner. This, to me, symbolizes her authority she has created during her time. Men think women would have run away from battle, but that is not the case for Joan.

I choose this picture because it represents Joan as the visionary from God. It also reminded me of during the movie when she went to the priest and wanted to confess after she saw the destruction that the war caused.
