The Peace of Munster

Wenceslaus Hollar

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a front-facing view of a city square with a city hall building at the center. The horizon line aligns with the building's roof, with a sky above featuring soft clouds. The artwork displays intricate brushwork capturing architectural details and figures. The color palette is monochrome, using sepia or gray tones. People in period clothing gather in the square, facing the city hall. Tall buildings frame the city hall's facade, which includes sculptural elements and a large clock. The street appears to narrow in the distance, creating a sense of depth.
