Emperor William’s Court Seeps with State Guest Troubles
The World notes Emperor William praised the silver dinner service at a Dutch royal display yet found nothing at Windsor or Buckingham finer. The London-made service, valued around 150,000, was moved to Holland after William III’s era. The Emperor proved a troublesome guest, with abrupt changes and missed engagements, while Belgian royals enjoyed shell hunting at Ostend and faced sharp Dutch commentary. Nicholas I’s reign is contrasted as a once-dominant page in Europe.
