Details

The German Emperor William II had to leave Germany towards the end of the First World War, in 1918. His obedience had been denounced by one of his generals. Willem II initially found shelter at Count Bentinck at Amerongen Castle in the Netherlands. In 1920 the ex-emperor bought Huize Doorn in the Netherlands. This photo belonged to one of Wilhelm II's employees. The picture in the frame is signed by Wilhelm II and is further marked 1918 - 20, and is therefore from the first period that the emperor was in the Netherlands.
