"O Jeanne, without sepulchre and without portrait,
you who knew that the tomb of heroes
is the heart of the living.
Two original plans - sections and elevations - of the monument engraved by Daniel Niaux in 1977, at the historic site of Joan of Arc's torture.
The first plan presents an initial draft of the project, while the second corresponds to the completed version.
P1 : H_30 cm - W_208 cm
P2: H_38 cm - W_200 cm
Plan of commemorative plaque attached.
Provenance :
Daniel NIAUX (born 1943)
These documents were entrusted by the artist-engraver himself, with a view to passing on the historical memory of the development of the Place du Vieux Marché.
Note:
This emblematic site includes :
- The execution site of Joan of Arc, burned alive on May 30, 1431;
- The memorial and church of Sainte-Jeanne-d'Arc, built in the 1970s;
- And, in a spirit of remembrance, the entire redevelopment, known as the Galerie du Souvenir, designed as a heritage and memorial space.
