Two women wave

 

The Queen and the Queen Mother on the Palace Balcony Responding to the Call of the Populace (Coronation of Wilhemina) (1898)


Directed by William K. L. Dickson this is an early short film. Royalty wave to the crowd.


Very milky in the surviving footage so not exactly easy to make out what is happening. The camera is a bit far away to make out the individuals which also does not help. Not the best in this series.


2/5
