The Kiss of Peace and Justice, 1654. Creator: Laurent de La Hyre (French, 1606-1656)
The Kiss of Peace and Justice, 1654. The figures of Peace (burning the weapons of war) and Justice (holding a sword and scales) embrace in a quiet landscape. The Latin inscription under the antique urn reads " Justice and Peace kissed" (referring to an Old Testament verse, Psalms 85:11). The subject may have had political significance: the paintings date coincides with the end of the Fronde, a period of civil war in France during which the parlement (courts of appeal) and the nobility sought--unsuccessfully--to limit the power of the monarchy
