Though convicted of heresy and burnt at the stake, IN 1909 Joan was beatified by the catholic church and in 1920 canonized as a saint. Many medals were issued in conjunction with the celebration of these actions. Rene' Boudichon ( French,1878-1963) depicted Joan in his 1909 medal as a young peasant receiving the call to action from Saints Michael, Margarete and Catherine, echoing the painting by Jules Bastien-Lepage ( now in the Metropolitan museum of Art). The reverse description: pine branch shield with fleur-de-lys, and the motto: JHESUS MARIA. Around the rim runs the legend : BEATIFICATION de JEANNE d'ARC le 18 MAI 1909 ( Beatification of Joan of Arc, May 1909) .
