About the piece
Painted in 1761 by Jacques Dumont le Romain, this elaborate work celebrates the Peace of Aix-la-Chapelle. The central figure in Roman-style armor stands amidst a whirlwind of symbolic deities and historical dignitaries, rendered with the luminous color and dynamic movement characteristic of the transition between the French Baroque and Neoclassical periods.
