This silver medal, created by Sebastian Dadler in 1649, commemorates the Peace of Münster, a significant treaty that ended the Eighty Years' War between the Netherlands and Spain. The obverse depicts a portrait of the Dutch statesman, Johan de Witt, while the reverse features a symbolic representation of peace, with a winged figure holding a staff and standing upon a globe, radiating light. The medal, crafted in a refined Renaissance style, highlights the importance of the Peace of Münster as a historical turning point.
