This 1938 broadside, created by an anonymous artist, commemorates the birth of Princess Beatrix, the future Queen of the Netherlands. The illustration features a stylized depiction of the royal family with a palace in the background, all surrounded by a decorative border. This artwork, held in the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of celebratory printmaking, using visual elements to mark a significant event in Dutch history. The text includes a poem by M. Nijhoff, adding a literary dimension to this engaging piece of Dutch visual culture.
