This anonymous 18th-century engraving from the Rijksmuseum depicts two soldiers shaking hands on a raised platform in front of a line of troops and flags. The image may portray a peace agreement between two armies, emphasizing the importance of diplomacy and unity in a time of military conflict. The etching style and small size, measuring 117 mm by 63 mm, are characteristic of the period, suggesting it may have been a private commission or a print sold to a wider audience.
