In this depiction, her military career is emphasised. St. Joan is clad in contemporary 15th-century plate armour and shoulders a sword in a scabbard ornamented with fleur di lis. The fleur di lis, a stylised lily, is a motif rich in heraldic, political, and religious significance. + Feast: May 30 + Image Credit (JM 28): Antique image of St. Joan of Arc, originally published in chromolithography by Josef Müller Art Publisher, Munich and New York, first quarter of the 20th century, from the designer’s private collection of religious ephemera.
