The scene shows Joan mounted on horseback surrounded by mounted horsemen in armour and courtiers on foot, many holding banners and flags. This group is on the left-hand side of the picture and they face a church, in front of which there is a large group of clergy resplendent in vestments, with an altar boy in the foreground purifying the air with incense. Joan is receiving a blessing. Behind the figures, the wide street, with houses either side, leads away into the distance where another church with spire is seen on the roadside. This is possibly a reference to Winchester Cathedral.
