EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative print from the Illustrated London News, published on September 11, 1948, Queen Juliana of the Netherlands takes the oath of loyalty as Sovereign Ruler of the Netherlands in the historic Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam. The scene captures the solemnity and grandeur of the moment as Queen Juliana, dressed in the traditional Dutch robes, places her hand on the Bible held by the Archbishop of Utrecht. Surrounded by Dutch nobility and dignitaries, she repeats the oath, pledging to uphold the Constitution and serve her people with devotion and integrity. The print, created by renowned Belgian artist Bryan de Grineau, masterfully conveys the sense of history being made as Queen Juliana assumes her role as the new monarch of the Netherlands following the abdication of her mother, Queen Wilhelmina. The intricate details of the Nieuwe Kerk's stunning interior, the ornate costumes, and the expressions of awe and reverence on the faces of the onlookers all contribute to the powerful and memorable image of this pivotal moment in Dutch history.
