Hans Martin Kaulbach Livres

Between 1450 and the 1815 Congress of Vienna, Europe repeatedly struggled for peace. Peace treaties were spectacular events and since the 1648 Peace of Westphalia, an increasing number of illustrated pamphlets and reports documented the actions of diplomats at European peace conferences. Illustrating this shift, the 'Images of Peace' exhibited at the Staatsgalerie show allegorical cover pages, triumphal chariots, almanacs, portraits of envoys, cartoons as well as medals. 0Exhibition: Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart, Germany. 0.
