Caption: Exploring the Rich Tapestry of Treaties Across Time and Space From the historic Treaty Stone in Limerick, Republic of Ireland, to the significant Treaty of Waitangi in New Zealand, treaties have shaped our world. Pictured here is a map of Europe after the Peace of Tilsit in 1807, showcasing how treaties redraw borders and redefine nations. The Treaty of Bretigny's territory settlements in 1360 marked a pivotal moment during the Hundred Years' War between England and France. Meanwhile, Adana's iconic bridge stands as a testament to peace agreements reached throughout history. In this captivating image from Holmes & Watson's lab, we are reminded that even fictional characters understand the importance of treaties in maintaining order and justice. Francis Younghusband's exploration endeavors highlight how treaties played a role beyond politics by shaping global interactions. The striking portrait depicts Michael Collins by Lady Lavery—a key figure involved in negotiating the Anglo-Irish Treaty that led to Irish independence. Such examples demonstrate how individuals can leave an indelible mark on history through treaty negotiations. Lastly, two prints depicting the Treaty of Breda serve as reminders that written agreements hold immense power. These documents symbolize diplomatic achievements and illustrate how treaties shape relationships between nations for generations to come.
