Sobre a pintura
Peace Urges The Churches Towards Tolerance (Dutch: Vrede maant de kerken tot verdraagzaamheid) is a 1600–1624 allegorical painting by an unknown artist. It was donated to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam in 1968 by Bosman, a Brussels-based collector for whom it had been purchased anonymously in France earlier that year. It has been on long-term loan to the Catharijneconvent Museum in Utrecht since 1977.

From left to right Jean Calvin, an unidentified pope and Martin Luther sit round a table. Luther plays a lute, whilst Calvin squeezes half an orange over his plate of lamb (symbolising the Calvinism of the House of Orange) and gives the pope the other used-up half to put in a pot. A female personification of Peace enters from the left bearing an olive branch, whilst to the right is he Anabaptist Menno Simons on all fours taking a tray of bread from the fire. Two paintings in the background show Peace and Justice (centre) and Charity and Her Children (right). Explanatory verses are also shown on the walls of the room.
Nas palavras do museu — em holandês
De Vrede maant de kerken tot verdraagzaamheid. In een interieur zitten Calvijn (bij een gebraden kalf). De paus (met een kom pap en twee katten op schoot) en Martin Luther (spelend op een luit) zitten aan tafel te twisten. Rechts doopt de wederdoper zijn brood in de dekschaal bij de haard. Links staat de vrouwelijke personificatie van Vrede met een olijftak in de hand. Aan de muur twee schilderijen. Rechts boven het dressoir Liefde (Caritas) met haar kinderen; op de achterwand wordt Vrede door Rechtvaardigheid op een voetstuk gezet terwijl Razernij wordt verdreven.
