"Koning Willem I wijst twee mannen de weg" (King William I shows two men the way) is a hand-colored lithograph by Jean-Louis Van Hemelryck, created in 1829. The image depicts a scene where the King, dressed in a top hat and dark coat, points his finger towards a building while speaking to two men in front of him. This lithograph is an example of the satirical art of the early 19th century in the Netherlands, possibly referencing the popular "King William I" stories that were circulating at the time.
