<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 343251, member: 2844&quot;]The first one of Wandelhoofd: &quot;Koningin Wilhelmina&quot;, is of the first pier at Scheveningen near The Hague. The pier was built in 1901, it was destroyed by the Germans who thought it would be perfect for an Allied invasion.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I love the second one. It is of two girls in the traditional dress of Middelburger Ambacht, the region around the town of Middelburg in the southwest of the country. This is an interesting photograph, the girls and women of Middelburger Ambacht began to wear Middelburg dress (which is slightly different) ca 1900. Not all at once, obviously, but they thought it more classy to dress like Middelburg people.</p><p><br /></p><p>The last Dutch one is the Stedelijk Museum (of Modern Art) as it used to look. It now has an extension nicknamed the bathtub:</p><p><img src="https://s16-us2.ixquick.com/cgi-bin/serveimage?url=http%3A%2F%2Ft0.gstatic.com%2Fimages%3Fq%3Dtbn%3AANd9GcTazjwCeew0LsYRLCvEVb0pNy3cobAA8pjNDJm3L9qYhKNa7gXNsQ&amp;sp=774bc96837943ccf494b7a590fcec298&amp;anticache=827621" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
