Description[edit]
Joan of Arc is an equestrian statue, with Joan of Arc riding a trotting horse, resting upon a three-tiered granite base (H. 52 in. x W 11. ft.). Her body is twisted slightly, and her right arm is raised behind her. She is wearing a helmet with a raised visor and she looks skywards. In her left hand she holds the reins to her horse. The sword she originally held in her right hand was stolen in 1978,[2] and not replaced until December 2011.[3] The pedestal was designed by American artist H.L. Davis.[4]
The front of the base has the inscription:
- JEANNE D'ARC
- LIBERATRICE
Jeanne D Arc Usa Isola
- 1412–1431
- AUX FEMMES D'AMERIQUE
- LES FEMMES DE FRANCE
- A NEW YORK
- LE 6 January 1922[1]
Location[edit]
In 1921 the United States Commission of Fine Arts suggested that the sculpture be placed at the terrace of Meridian Hill Park.[4]
Acquisition[edit]
Jeanne d'Arc, Reims, France
The piece was first proposed in May 1916 by Mme Polifème to the Commission of Fine Arts in order to celebrate the friendship between France and the United States. During its creation, DuBois worked closely with the French Minister of Education and Fine Arts in producing a credible representation of the peasant girl.[5]
The statue was completed in 1922 in Paris; the original (fr) was cast in three copies, currently located respectively in Reims (1890), Paris (1895) and Strasbourg (1897). The replica in Washington was donated by Le Lyceum Société des Femmes de France to the women of the United States of America.[6]
Dedication[edit]
Dedication ceremony
On 6 January 1923 when the piece was dedicated President Harding and the French Ambassador were the guests of honor. Mrs. Harding and Mme Jusserand, who represented France, also attended.[5]
Reception[edit]
According to the National Commission of Fine Art it was described, at the time, as being 'regarded by artists as the finest equestrian statue of modern times.'[5]Henry Bacon wrote that 'Dubois's statue of Jeanne D'Arc is one of the fine things of the world and no setting is too good for it.'[7]
Information[edit]
It is the only equestrian statue of a woman in Washington, D.C.[8]
On the 500th anniversary of Joan's martyrdom, Paul Claudel, Ambassador of France, held a tribute to the Saint.[9]
