Wilhelmina and Juliana edit
- Reason
- I haven't seen many featured pictures related to the Netherlands. This image is an amiable portrait of two Dutch royals in the early 20th century, taken just before or in the First World War. The regnancies of Queen Wilhelmina and Queen Juliana combined span exactly 100 years, from 1880 until 1980. (This includes the years before Queen Wilhelmina became 18 years old, in the time of Queen regent Emma.) When at full size, the photograph is a little grainy, but this is comparable to other historical black and white photographs that are featured pictures.

- Comment I'm not sure where to put this, but their combined reigns span 90 years, from 1890 to 1980, not 100. Wilhelmina was born in 1880. AecisBrievenbus 13:06, 10 January 2008 (UTC) moved down by Ilse@ 13:20, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

- Oppose, not all that interesting, lots of blank space above the child's head, and a non-striking composition. Tim Vickers (talk) 00:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
