Opening van het gebouw van de Vereeniging voor den Effectenhandel te Amsterdam 1913 1913

This bronze plaque, created by Johannes Cornelis Wienecke in 1913, commemorates the opening of the Vereeniging voor den Effectenhandel building in Amsterdam. The plaque features a figure of a man, perhaps representing progress or commerce, standing within a wreath. The other side is inscribed with the names of the founding members and the date of the opening. This piece, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, is an example of early 20th-century commemorative art, and is a testament to the rich history of financial institutions in the Netherlands.
