This anonymous 1923 work, titled "Wapens van de provinciën en hoofdsteden van het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden," depicts the coats of arms of the provinces and capital cities of the Netherlands. The artwork was likely created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Queen Wilhelmina's reign. The arrangement of the coats of arms, centered by the Royal Dutch coat of arms, gives visual emphasis to the central authority of the Queen. This piece offers a unique glimpse into the heraldry of the Netherlands and its provinces in the early 20th century.
