Painting Description
"Signing of the Peace Protocol Between Spain and the United States August 12 1898" is a historical painting by French artist Theobald Chartran, which commemorates the momentous occasion when Spain and the United States agreed to a protocol of peace, effectively ending the Spanish-American War. The war, which began in April 1898, was a conflict in which the United States intervened in the Cuban War of Independence, ultimately leading to Spain's relinquishment of sovereignty over Cuba and ceding of territories such as Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines to the United States.
Chartran, known for his portraiture and historical scenes, captures the gravity and formality of the diplomatic event in his work. The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical importance, as it depicts a pivotal moment in the changing balance of world powers at the turn of the 20th century. The signing took place in Washington, D.C., and the painting likely portrays key figures involved in the negotiations, including U.S. Secretary of State William R. Day and the Spanish ambassador to France, Eugenio Montero Ríos, among others.
The artwork serves as a visual document of the peace agreement, which was a precursor to the Treaty of Paris signed on December 10, 1898, formally ending the war. Chartran's painting is an example of how art intersects with political and historical narratives, offering insight into the events and personages that shaped international relations and the course of history. While the painting itself may not be as widely recognized as other historical artworks, it remains a valuable piece for those studying the Spanish-American War and the broader implications of the conflict on Spain, the United States, and colonial territories during the era of imperialism.
