EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in Dutch history - the inauguration of King William II in the Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam on November 28,1840. The image showcases the grandeur and solemnity of this significant event. In the center of the frame, King William II can be seen lying under a majestic canopy, surrounded by an air of regality. With his right hand raised high, he takes the oath to uphold his duties as king. On the left side of the photograph, a table displays both his throne and scepter, symbols of power and authority. The Nieuwe Kerk is filled with spectators who have gathered to witness this auspicious occasion. Their presence adds to the sense of anticipation and excitement that permeates through this historical setting. This print is actually a preliminary study for a painting that currently resides in H. M. de Koningin's possession at Noordeinde Palace. It was created by Nicols Pieneman between 1840-1845 using panel and oil paint as mediums. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are transported back in time to relive this momentous day when Willem II ascended to become King of Netherlands. It serves as a testament to our rich heritage and reminds us of our nation's enduring traditions and values.
