The painting for this sticker started out as a "master copy," which means copying a painting by a famous artist from the past. But the more I worked on it, the more I realized I just wanted to paint in my own style. I finally allowed myself to move forward with what came naturally to me after using the artist's composition. The original artist was one of the greatest Pre-Raphaelite painters, Dante Rosetti. It is said that his painting of Saint Joan was his last, before he died. Saint Joan is shown with a sword, although she never used one. She rode into battle bearing the flag of Jesus and Mary, but the sword is more symblic of her courage and zeal for the things of God. 

Saint Joan of Arc is beloved by many! She was a French shepherd girl when she first heard heavenly voices. The three saints who spoke to her told her she was to lead France into victory over England and restore Charles to his throne. She had many successes in battle but was taken captive by the English and sentenced to be burned at the stake as a witch. As she burned, the witnesses wept, for they knew she was a pure and holy saint. Some years later, her name was cleared and she was declared a saint of the Catholic Church in 1922. She is patron saint of soldiers.

High quality. Colors last through many washings. Handwashing is preferable. 

The sticker measures 2" by 2".

Holds firmly but is removable from smooth surfaces.
