Sunday, April 18, 1909. St. Joan d'Arc beatified.
St. Joan d'Arc was beatified by Pope Pius X before a crowed of 30,000 in St. Peter's Square.
Drawing of St. Joan d'Arc made during her lifetime.
A patron saint of France who lived from 1412 to 1431 before being executed, her canonization would follow in May, 1920.
Remarkably, an example of her signature exists.
