This is a portrait of Princess Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, possibly taken in 1896 by the court photographer Kameke. The image depicts the young princess in profile, with a simple, elegant hairstyle and a white dress. The photograph is small in scale, measuring 165 mm by 108 mm, and is housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a significant repository for Dutch art and history. The portrait's simple composition emphasizes the subject's youthfulness and dignity. The work is an example of photographic portraiture popular in the late 19th century and contributes to the historical documentation of Dutch royalty.
