Antique statue of Joan of Arc on horseback, polychrome bisque porcelain, “God Willing,” circa 1900
Antique sculpted group in polychrome bisque porcelain depicting Joan of Arc on horseback, European manufacturer, late 19th or early 20th century, circa 1900.
Joan of Arc is depicted in bluish-gray medieval armor, mounted on a white horse at a raised walk. She holds a gilded crucifix to her chest and looks up toward the sky. The horse features detailed tack, a black mane, and shades of gray on its body.
The composition rests on a rectangular, beveled pedestal bearing the raised inscriptions “Jeanne d’Arc” and “Dieu le veut” (God wills it). Model number 1272 cast into the base.
Polychrome bisque porcelain work in matte colors, with gilded highlights on the crucifix and the armor. The work can be associated with German productions from Thuringia around 1900.
This equestrian depiction is part of the patriotic and religious iconography of Joan of Arc, which was widely circulated in the late 19th century during the revival of her cult in France, prior to her beatification in 1909 and her canonization in 1920.
Good condition; see photos.
