EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic entry and inauguration of King Willem II in Amsterdam on November 27-28,1840. The image showcases the grandeur of the event, with five compartments dividing the front of the sheet. At the bottom, we see King Willem II entering through the Willemspoort in Amsterdam, accompanied by a procession that passes triumphal arches erected throughout the city. The top compartment depicts the king's journey from the Palace to the Nieuwe Kerk for his official inauguration on November 28. The middle section features significant texts such as the Act of Abdication and William II's proclamation, adorned with vignettes and portraits. In addition to these important documents is "Letter to myne Landgenooten" which serves as a central focus point on this remarkable print. On its backside, four columns of text detail further aspects of this momentous occasion. This sheet also comes with an accompanying second sheet that continues "the Brief" (letter) and can be wrapped around when folding it. This extraordinary piece offers a glimpse into not only King Willem II's entry and inauguration but also provides insight into other forms of installation and public festivities held during royal events in Amsterdam at that time.
