Each year’s saint medallion features a different artistic representation of Joan in a different setting.  This year’s art piece is a medieval miniature, originally part of an illuminated letter D.  The 2018 setting is a one-inch oval antique-gold colored alloy metal with a glass cabochon (nickel, lead and cadmium-free). The back says “St. Joan of Arc 2018, Krewe de Jeanne d’Arc.”  Saint medallions are individually packaged traditional saint-medal-style on a prayer card in a fitted cello envelope. Inside the envelope is another card which has background information on the painting on one side. The other side has a krewe member initial for making it and a krewe member initial for praying for the recipient. The 18-inch chain is a nickel, lead- and cadmium-free antique gold-colored alloy..

The insert card reads: “The painting used in the Krewe de Jeanne d’Arc’s 2018 Joan of Arc saint medallion is a miniature that forms the inside of an illuminated letter “D” from a medieval manuscript by an anonymous artist from the Flemish school (AE II 2490, Centre Historique des Archives Nationales, circa 1450-1500).  Joan is depicted here with her sword and banner, with the image of “our Lord holding the world with two angels” as Joan described it in her trial testimony.”

 

2018 Prayer card with our 10th anniversary logo and medieval artwork from Charles VII Book of Hours, 1500s France. On the back is a prayer written by krewe member Richard Helm.
