"Vervolg van de samenspraak van Louw en Krelis, ter gelegenheid van het huwelijk van Willem V en Wilhelmina van Pruisen, 1767" is an anonymous 18th-century Dutch broadside commemorating the marriage of William V, Prince of Orange, and Wilhelmina of Prussia. The text is composed of a poem and a prose passage discussing the marriage and its significance. The broadside serves as an example of Dutch print culture during the 18th century, illustrating the common use of poetry and prose to mark important events in the lives of the ruling elite. This piece, with its simple black and white printing, reflects the printing methods of the time and provides a window into historical Dutch culture and the celebrations of marriage.
