FIG. 1. Drawing, 1429, Clément de Fauquembergue. A clerk’s doodle in the margin of Paris’s parliamentary record is the single extant contemporaneous image of Joan of Arc. Likenesses made in her lifetime were destroyed upon her being condemned as a witch, rendering them dangerous devil’s currency.

FIG. 2. Miniature, fifteenth century, artist unknown. Having protected Joan’s modesty by leaving her legs out of the image’s frame, the artist feminizes her armor into an impregnable steel bodice and peplum that emphasize a woman’s build.
