10-jarig Bestaan van de Bijzondere Vrijwillige Landstorm 1928

This commemorative plate, created by August Falise in 1928, celebrates the 10th anniversary of the "Bijzondere Vrijwillige Landstorm" (Special Voluntary Landstorm) in the Netherlands. The plate features a central image of a soldier, a symbol of national defense, standing with a rifle against a sunburst background. The inscription "Als 't Moet" (When Necessary) emphasizes readiness for national service. The blue and white palette and intricate floral border are characteristic of traditional Dutch Delftware, making this piece a beautiful example of commemorative art.
