King William II of the Netherlands,1845. Creator: Unknown.

King William II of the Netherlands, 1845. 'Sketch from the Grand Review in Hyde Park [in London]...His Majesty the King of the Netherlands and a numerous suite of general officers reviewed the household troops and some other regiments...the King...was on horseback, and attired in the uniform of a Field Marshal of the British army...As his Majesty entered the gates of the park, the Artillery fired a Royal salute of 21 guns, and on the King appearing before the troops, the bands ot all the regiments played the Dutch national air, "Wilhelm Van Nassau", and, afterwards, " God save the Queen".
