    Regarding Joan's hair, I'm afraid the depiction of her with a bob haircut is a stereotype that is wrong. At the time, the fashionable, if not ubiquitous male hairstyle was a bowl cut, and this is how the written records state she cut her hair. That's right - a bowl above the ears with everything below the bowl shaved clean off. She was charged at her trial with dressing in male clothing and wearing her hair in this hairstyle like a young man.

      I wonder moreover if she were in modern times would she have been a transman? Across history it has been demonized for women to dress, look or act like men. But in modern times we have a bit more freedom. I could see her being a young rebellious person still upsetting authority in any time frame, regardless.

And it doesn't even come down to the fact that in the fifteenth century, there was no concept or vocabulary for trans. It simply does not apply to this situation or Mary Read or Anne Bonney.

    This was gorgeous! Joan is one of my many favorite saints, it truly is a tragedy that her life was cut so short. The depiction was amazing especially since we have no real consistent evidence of what she looks like. Her executioners wanted to make sure that no one would have any remains to bury so once she was dead from the first initial fire they set another one with oil to burn her body down to ashes and then sprinkled the ashes in the Seine. I thank you for bringing one of my favorite saints alive for a moment!

      Kind of Jewish looking to me. It is said she descended from the royal house of Anjou, Kings of Jerusalem, and that she was therefore hereditary Knights Templar nobility. Perhaps this is why King Charles VII quickly ennobled the entire Jacques Darc family line once Charles was coronated and anointed King of all France?

      @@erichansen3641 I am only repeating what I have read in books, written by historians who have taken the time to look into the information provided to us by Joan herself, her family, friends and colleagues (via both of her trials as well as the examination to which se was subjected to by advisors to the Dauphin prior to her going to Orleans). Absolutely none of these people mention the royal house of Anjou or the Knights Templar. Joan's father, Jacques d'Arc, was a minor offical in the village of Domremy, and her mother, Isabelle Romee, taught her daughter embroidery, spinning and prayers. Her surname (Romee) indacates that possibly, someone in her ancestry made a pilgrimmage to Rome. More to the point, would Charles VII be so quick to abandon Joan to the English after her arrest if she WAS a descendant of the House of Anjou? No, she would have been ransomed.
      What you are spouting is more of the romantic nonsense that has sprouted up around Joan since her execution and canonization (1920). And I can't understand why, as her actual sorry shorn of all this is quite remarkable enough.

    I always imagined Joan as being more muscular. I would have expected her to have heavier jaws. It was also said that Joan of Arc should be distinguished by eyes that were far apart, giving her a look that made her unique. There must have been an air of unnatural loftiness about her that had to be conveyed by her eyes because she had such unquestioning confidence in God. She just knew that she was marked to be unbeatable. Something had to convey a great moral strength, but also a physical strength of a farm girl, whom you could identify, at first look, as being unstoppable when decided. That face, even at rest, had to express: 'Don't mess with me!'

    I am seeing this almost a year later. I can't help but think of the resemblance to the Joan of Arc in Bill and Ted's excellent adventure.

    I just happened along your website today and I really think you have something here. I find it very interesting how you betray these images and talk about the history. Never seen quite anything like these videos. I find them very enlightening. Thank you for sharing!

    It's Jane Wiedlin from the Go-Go's!! Ironically, Jane portrayed JOA in the 80's film "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure".

    That sculpture is disputed by historians; but there is possibly a surviving painting of Claude des Armoises who closely resembled Joan of Arc enough to fool some of the people who knew her. The 5'2" estimate is the uppermost bound, not her actual height. I don't think any source described her as "muscular" (that's just an assumption made up by some modern authors). Her bodyguard Jehan d'Aulon said she was "beautiful and shapely".

      @@janreed3338 Yes, that's true; but she resembled the real Joan of Arc enough to fool a number of people, which means her appearance would give us an idea of what the real Joan of Arc looked like.

      We have accounts that emphasise her physical strength, but I suppose that might not necessarily mean that she was muscular.

      @actadiurna6733 3 роки тому

      @@omniavanitas7893 I think you're thinking of accounts mentioning her ability to keep riding for long periods and similar, which would seem to refer to stamina or perseverance rather than physical strength. I think the only source claiming she was physically strong was "La Chronique de Lorraine", a fictional account which also claims she was never captured or executed but instead simply vanished into thin air outside Rouen. That's not a reliable source.

    There's a book that was written years ago on Joan called "Joan of Arc: In her own words." The book is mostly quotes of things she said but it does give a description of her. In the the book, she is described as a stocky girl that was about 4'8 with swarthy skin, black or dark brown hair with blue or gray eyes. A very fascinating book.
