A Dutch Delft De Porceleyne Fles Queen Wilhelmina Jubilee plate designed in the Persian style by Adolf le Comte (1850-1921). Although Le Comte already passed away in 1921 the plate was probably a pre-emptive design by him. In 1923 Queen Wilhelmina celebrated 25 years of rule in The Netherlands. She was a favored Royal figure in The Netherlands due to the fact that she was responsible for keeping the country neutral during the First World War (1914-1918)
