The Peace Conference Building at the Portsmouth Navy Yard in New Hampshire is the setting here, and the postcard dates to 1905, the year diplomats from Russia and Japan met on the base to negotiate the end of the Russo-Japanese War. President Theodore Roosevelt brokered those talks, which produced the Treaty of Portsmouth that September and earned him the Nobel Peace Prize the following year. The card's view of the building captures a moment when a small New England shipyard briefly became the center of world diplomacy.
