'Peace Comes to Town', 1913. Artist: Leonard Raven-Hill

'Peace Comes to Town', 1913. A figure of a knight, representing Sir Edward Grey (lst Viscount of Fallodon), British Foreign Secretary 1905-1916 carries the figure of Peace on his horse to the London Conference to end the First Balkan War, fought between Turkey and the Balkan League, consisting of Bulgaria, Greece, Serbia and Montenegro. The war restarted only a month after the signing in London in December 1912 of an armistice to end hostilities. The knight refers to this saying; 'Prithee, fair damsel, see to it that ye sit close, for I mind me that the last time we twain fared this way together thou didst have the mischance to slip off.' From Punch, or the London Charivari, 21 May, 1913.
