Witness descriptions describe her as dark haired
Your painting is very cool. It has a nice "mood" to it and looks good.

I'm a firm believer in the purple hair legend, which in in fact truth. Those "green hair legend believers" are nothing but revisionists and pseudo-historians!

Yours is, however the most accurate lol People draw her with long hair whereas witness testimonies proved she had her hair cut short to prevent molestation ( men were yucky back then lol ) and avert away sexual attention. I think she was a blonde (pictures show her brown-hair though?) but I think yours is best :'D

Nice work.
I think that is a representation that is change what we used to see her.
In a way its dark side.
And in my opinion, hair is much like that.
If I remember my old history courses, I think that the only representation that was made of Jeanne d'Arc in his time at his trial and was drawed with the mid-long hair, and black .

Joli travail.
Je trouve que c'est une représentation qui change de ce qu'on a l'habitude de voir d'elle.
C'est un peu son côté sombre.
Et à mon avis, les cheveux sont bien comme ça.
Si je me souvient de mes vieux cours d'histoire, je crois me souvenir que la seule représentation qui a été faite de Jeanne d'Arc à son epoque était lors de son procès, et elle était dessinée les cheveux mi-long, et noirs.
