Princess Margriet & Prof Pieter van Vollenhoven, Current Events Part 4 (March 2018 -)


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Definitely a green screen. You can tell by the shadows -- the ones in the room are falling to the right from the window light, but the people are lighted head-on. They don't match up.

They're also in the wrong perspective to be standing in that room.

Still, it was done well!
 
It is indeed a green screen montage. Strange that Princess Margriet and Pieter did not use their privare house, studded with artworks to record a video. Maybe because of Covid-19 no strangers in their villa?

The old dining room before it closed for restoration had no carpet on the floor:

The picture shown on the green screen was exactly this one, with the same lighting and the old 18th C Persian carpet with a corner pointing upward :

The palace is still largely empty for the major extension, renovation and restoration. Most salons have all murals, gobelins, chandeliers, whatever removed:

Princess Margriet visits private equity firm Vidar in Sittard-Geleen. People with a distance to the labor market can go to Vidar to find a job. Vidar employees participate in the mouth caps production.

Not sure why the translation you used stated that Vidar is a 'private equity firm'; as it would be rather weird to go to a private equity firm to get a job if you have a distance to the labor market...

Vidar was previously was called a 'Participation company' or a 'learn-work company'; so a first place to start doing (manual) work that doesn't require prior qualification as a first stop to a potential 'real' paying job elsewhere. In practice, many of the people working here will not find a job with a 'real' (not subsidized) firm.

Princess Margriet as Patron of the SOS Children's Villages paid a two-day working visit to SOS Children's Villages in Austria on July 7 and 8.

She visited „various projects, including a children's village and a project where young refugees live under supervision and work on building a new life“:

What a lovely trip and visit by the Princess the photos are just wonderful.
 
A two-day working visit seems like a special honor indeed (and is no doubt well-deserved by a longstanding patronage involved in important work). It will surely be appreciated by the organization and the young refugee with whom she met.

Pleased to see that the princess remains an active working member of the Royal House.
 
Princess Margriet continues to be an inspirational member of the royal family .
 
This evening, July 9, Princess Margriet and Prof. van Vollenhoven attended the premiere of „The Sound of Music“:

We don't see them that often nowadays, so always nice when they have a joined night out.
 
There's something hilarious about that rex gallery calling him her partner. :lol:

They're very hip and modern for being married for more than 50 years...:cool:
 
Today, July 12, Princess Margriet attended the celebration for the 50th anniversary of the Apenheul animal park in Apeldoorn:

It is not often we get to see the interior of the private houses of the RF. It seems that during the big renovation of a few years ago the floor tiles were not changed, as they appear to be the same ones as we have seen in photos from the 80s. Not very harmonious with the dark antiques IMO but practical perhaps.

The lady on right painting seems to be Marie-Louise of Hessen-Kassel -mother of stadholder Willem IV-or her daughter Amalie of Nassau-Dietz, who married the hereditary prince of Baden-Durlach. After the death of Amalie's husband, her father-in-law had her declared insane and locked her up in some rooms in Schloss Karlsburg.
 
Prof Pieter van Vollenhoven opened the annual Open Monument Day in Weert this afternoon, September 9:
