EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, entitled 'The Peace Plenipotentiaries' from a photograph by Mayer Brothers and Pierson of Paris, 1856, captures a pivotal moment in international history. The image documents the signing of the Treaty of Paris, which brought an end to the Crimean War between the Russian Empire and an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, the United Kingdom, the Second French Empire, and the Kingdom of Sardinia. Seated in the center is Count Walewski of France, with Lord Clarendon of Great Britain to his right, followed by Aali Pacha of Turkey and Baron de Hubner of Austria. On the left of Count Walewski are Count Orloff of Russia, Baron de Bourqueney of France, and Lord Cowley of Great Britain. Among the standing figures, starting from the left, are Count Cavour and the Marquis de Villamarina of Sardinia, Count Hatzfeldt of Prussia, M. Benedetti, the redacteur des protocoles, Mehemmed Djenik Bey of Turkey, Baron de Brunnow of Russia, Baron de Manteuffel of Prussia, and Count Buol of Austria. The Treaty of Paris, signed on March 30, 1856, marked a significant shift in European politics and diplomacy. The war, which lasted from 1853 to 1856, had resulted in widespread devastation and loss of life. The peace treaty brought about various concessions, including the demilitarization of the Danube River, the restoration of the Moldavian and Wallachian thrones, and the granting of autonomy to the Christian populations of the Ottoman Empire. This photograph is a testament to the diplomatic efforts and negotiations that led to the end of the Crimean War and the signing of the Treaty of Paris. It offers a unique glimpse into the faces of the key figures involved in the peace process and their determination to bring an end to the conflict.
