I think the serene look on her face is very fitting. I imagine that Joan of Arc would not have flinched, nor screamed. I think her pride and principals would have kept her strong. If I were being burnt at the stake for something I felt I had done for the right reasons...then I too would stand firm! Great work!!!!

yes, i have to agree with you there......faith was much more important to people back then, and though i'm sure there were plenty who died in agony, many of them allowed their strong faith to carry them through it and they held that faith until the end

The lighting is great, but she seems just a little too serene to be on fire to me. It almost looks like we are looking in through the back of a fireplace and that she isn't on fire at all. Also I think there would be more signs of fire on her garb. Tis a beautiful manipulation of a abhorent practice.

yes, you are probably right....once the fire took hold, undboubtedly her clothes would be burnt to a singe....this is right after the fire was lit....the heat is just starting to reach her....the flames are perhaps just getting close enough to be uncomfortable.....but it is only a matter of minutes before her clothes become engulfed and her flesh starts to burn....many witches(and martyrs of various sorts) did go to the stake in a serene manner.....and they held their serene stance for as long as they were able.
thanks so much for the comment and for the

Actually, it would be interesting to note that when people are burnt on the stake, they do not die of the burning itself. They usually faint from the heat and suffocate to death from the smoke 
I think it looks great!

yes, that's very true! even if the smoke did not suffocate you, you would find it very hard to stay conscious in such extreme pain!
and thanks so much for the
