Peace
EDITORS COMMENTS
by John Samuel Pughe, created in 1905, is an allegorical illustration that personifies the concept of peace as a powerful figure atop a flotilla of naval ships. The lead ship bears the face of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, a prominent American politician and former President, signifying his role as a mediator in the negotiation process. Peace, depicted as a woman, dons armor and wields a sword in one hand, symbolizing her strength and readiness to defend. In her other hand, she holds an olive branch, fashioned from intertwined bayonets, representing the potential for both defense and diplomacy. Two doves, emblems of peace, fly by her side, also armored and armed, emphasizing the importance of strength and preparedness in the pursuit of peace. This illustration, created using the photomechanical process, was produced during the early 20th century and is a testament to the artistic skill and political commentary of the period. The image is reminiscent of the "Meeting of the Frontiers" and the idea of negotiating peace talks between nations. The illustration is a significant piece of American heritage art, now preserved in the Congressional Library, and serves as a powerful reminder of the role of diplomacy and strength in maintaining peace.
