Peace Reigns: A Glorious Allegory of Consolation and Abundance by Eugène Delacroix and Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta This image is a reduced copy of the central part of the ceiling of the Salon de la Paix at the Hotel-de-Ville in Paris, painted by the renowned French artist, Eugène Delacroix, before 1871. The painting, a magnificent allegory of peace and abundance, was further reproduced by Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta. The painting depicts a serene Peace personified as a goddess, consoling distraught men amidst an idyllic landscape. She is flanked by various deities, including Ceres, Cybele, and Jupiter, symbolizing the bountiful harvest, fertility, and protection, respectively. The goddess Peace, with a gentle expression and outstretched arms, offers solace to the men, who appear to be seeking refuge from the turbulent world outside. The painting is set against a backdrop of vibrant clouds, which seem to part, allowing the celestial light to shine through. The color palette is rich and diverse, with warm hues of gold, red, and green contrasting against cooler blues and purples. The composition is circular, drawing the viewer's gaze inward, inviting contemplation and reflection. The Salon de la Paix, or Peace Room, was a historic interior located in the Hotel-de-Ville, the former city hall of Paris. The room was renowned for its impressive collection of art and was a popular destination for visitors to the city. Today, a reproduction of this painting can be found at the Carnavalet Museum in Paris, a testament to the enduring legacy of Delacroix and Madrazo y Garreta's masterpiece.
