Post lot text

FONTAINEBLEAU SCHOOL 16th CENTURY, PEACE AND JUSTICE KISS EACH OTHER, OIL ON PANEL

The subject of this allegorical composition is taken from the Book of Psalms: "Goodness and faithfulness meet, justice and peace embrace" (Ps 85,10). Peace, accompanied by her symbol the dove, bends over Justice who, armed with a sword and holding scales, is crowned by a putto.

Allegories were common in 16th-century painting, and the Dobrée Museum in Nantes, which has another version of this composition, suggests in their commentary on the painting that this may be one with a double significance. It is possible that the viewer is meant to understand this as a political comment on the 1559 Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis, which put an end to the Eleventh Italian War between France on the one hand and the Holy Roman Empire and Spain on the other.

In addition to the Nantes version, other similar paintings are known, including a version in the Hermitage (St. Petersburg, inv. no. 7724) painted by Maarten de Vos (1532-1603) and another by Jacob de Backer sold Christie's, New York, 27 January 2000, lot 54.
