Executed with intricate pen and ink detailing by an anonymous French School artist from the 19th century, this artwork showcases the diplomatic negotiations between Napoleon Bonaparte and the United States.

The backdrop for this agreement was set by previous events such as the XYZ affair – a diplomatic incident that strained relations between France and America.
