EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the town hall of Munster on 15 May 1648. The image showcases the ratification of the Peace of Munster between Spain and the Dutch Republic, marking an important milestone in European history. At the center of attention is a grand table where representatives from both parties gather to swear-in and sign this significant peace treaty. The distinguished figures present include Gaspar de Bracamonte y Guzman, Count of Penaranda, Antoine Brun, Barthold van Ghent (Lord of Meynerswijck), Johan van Mathenesse, Adriaen Pauw, Frans van Donia, Willem van Ripperda, and Adriaen Clant. These individuals played crucial roles in negotiating and finalizing this peace agreement that brought an end to hostilities between two powerful nations. The artist Gerard ter Borch (II) masterfully captured this historical event with his meticulous brushstrokes. This remarkable copper print measures approximately 46 cm in height by 60 cm in width with a depth of 4.8 cm. The use of oil paint adds depth and richness to every detail portrayed. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back in time to witness this pivotal moment when diplomacy triumphed over conflict. It serves as a reminder that even amidst turbulent times, peaceful resolutions can be achieved through dialogue and compromise.
