Stylized portrait of - now princess - Beatrix. Made at the invitation of Beatrix herself, who invited five artists to Huis ten Bosch in 1995 to pose for two hours, with a break for a cup of tea.
From the publication 'Haagse Hoofden' published on the occasion of the first exhibition Nieuwspoort in 2000:
'Marike Bok was the only one who sketched; the others were fiddling with cameras. (...) Bok made an intriguing screen print of the head of state, which you will encounter on the wall of many town halls or palaces of justice. Someone from the court called about it, she remembers: "I have to call you on behalf of Prince Claus that he admires the portrait very much."
