The Amsterdam Exhibition - opened on May 11, 1895. '1. The Great White Elephant. 2. Some Costumes at the Show. 3. The Bridge and Canal, Old Holland. 4. The Boat Restaurant. An international exhibition, which was originally intended only to illustrate hotel equipment and travel, was opened at Amsterdam on May 11. It is held on the same site as that used for the Exhibition of 1883, and the grounds are laid out with the horticultural skill which one expects in Holland. Both the Queens being absent, the opening ceremony was performed by Baron van Bellinchave, Grand Master of Ceremonies. The Exhibition, like most, was "not yet quite ready." There is a section devoted to the reproduction of "Old Holland," and various interesting exhibits which merit a visit'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
