Portrait of Joan

Public Domain
There are no contemporary images of Joan, who has been described as short, stocky, and not particularly attractive, so this portrait appears to be inspired by her legend more than by the facts. Source: The France of Joan of Arc by Andrew C.P. Haggard; published John Lane Company, 1912.
