Concluding the South African Crisis, the Paardekraal Meeting's engraving echoes the hope for peace, as seen in the Humours of Cynicus's coloured image of Romeo and Juliet. Napoleon and Tsar Alexander's historic meeting, depicted on the front cover of La Baionnette during World War 1, mirrors the significance of diplomacy in resolving conflicts. Bishop Mazarin's peace treaty of Cherasco in 1631, as illustrated by Caspar Luyken and Boudewijn, further highlights the power of negotiation. Fast forward to modern times, the relationship between Japan and America, symbolized by their shared commitment to peace and cooperation, conclusively demonstrates the enduring importance of diplomacy in a globalized world.
