Equestrian statue of Joan of Arc, Bronze equestrian statue in Riverside Park, Manhattan, United States.
The 20-foot bronze monument shows Joan of Arc in armor on horseback with her sword raised toward the sky at Riverside Drive and 93rd Street.
Artist Anna Hyatt Huntington created this monument in 1915, marking New York City's first public statue both made by a woman and depicting a female figure.
The statue reinforced Franco-American relations during World War I and commemorated the 500th anniversary of Joan of Arc's birth with its December 1915 dedication.
Visitors can access the statue near West 93rd Street in Riverside Park, with nearby entrances from Riverside Drive offering direct pathways to the monument.
The sculptor conducted extensive research on medieval armor and used live horses as models to ensure accuracy in the representation of both rider and mount.
