About the Item

Round, curved plate (‘pancake’) with flattened bottom and raised edge. Decor: in the middle, one below the other, the text: ‘God granted / through Prussia’s power / his right again / and established the Dutch salvation through good fortune / again and again / now that we are connected with England and Prussia / freedom always remains preserved and / Religion inviolate’. Border: tendril ornament. The poem refers to an event from the time of stadtholder Prince Willem V (1748-1806). The prince was increasingly cornered by the patriots during his reign. On June 28, 1787, his wife, Princess Wilhelmina of Prussia, was arrested by patriots at the Goejanverwellesluis. Her brother, King Frederick William of Prussia, came to the rescue and entered the Republic with an army of 20,000 men. He chased away the patriots, after which Prince William V was able to return as stadtholder. The poem on the board refers to the Act of Guarantee (1788), in which Prussia and England jointly guaranteed the stadtholder system.
