Distribution of Rewards, plate eighteen from The Miseries of War

1633

Jacques Callot (French, 1592-1635) published by Israël Henriet (French, 1590-1661)

Inscribed: This example of a grateful leader who punishes evil and rewards the good, should prick soldiers with the goad of honor, since all their happiness depends on virtue and they ordinarily receive from vice shame, scorn and the extreme penalty.
