"Vredesonderhandelingen met Spanje te Munster" is a silver medal created by Johannes Looff, a Dutch medalist, likely in 1647. The medal depicts a ship at sea, sailing through choppy waters, and is a commemorative piece celebrating the peace negotiations between the Netherlands and Spain in Munster. The inscription "Timide ac Prudenter" ("With caution and prudence") on the medal likely reflects the cautious and diplomatic approach to the negotiations. The medal's small size and detailed execution are characteristic of Dutch medallic art.
