The tragic yet radiant story of "The Maid of Orleans," Joan of Arc (1412-1431), illustrated and narrated by the renowned French artist Maurice Boutet de Monvel (1850-1913). A masterpiece of the golden era of children's book illustration at the turn of the 20th century, previously unpublished in Russian, it still evokes admiration and delight with the unrivaled mastery of the great artist.

Maurice Boutet de Monvel's stern yet luminous illustrations and text reminiscent of an ancient chronicle will revive the classic version of "Joan of Arc." Historical fame sometimes makes the personal tragedy of "The Maid of Orleans" forgotten, but her name will forever remain a symbol of hope—both public and that of ordinary people.

This book is based on the 1896 French edition.
