Algemene gebedsdag bij de aanvang van de onderhandelingen te 's-Gravenhage 1608

This 1608 bronze medal, created by an anonymous artist, commemorates the General Prayer Day held at the start of peace negotiations in The Hague. The obverse depicts a figure kneeling in prayer with a sword and a palm branch, symbolizing the hope for a peaceful resolution. The reverse features a bundle of arrows, representing unity and strength. This small but significant piece of art serves as a reminder of the importance of prayer and diplomacy in achieving peace.
