Great Picture (19)


23 Sep 2010 - The Dutch Press Agency ANP published this picture of the preparations for the annual 'Prinsjesdag': the day Dutch queen Beatrix reads out the plans of the Dutch Government for the coming year. The Dutch are awaiting the forming of a new leadership (or failure thereof), so reading out the plans of the old establishment seemed a rather meaningless event. Despite the odd moment, thousands came out to cheer on the queen and enjoy the day off in The Hague.
