Title
The pleasures of exile: The ex-kaiser at Doorn House, where he celebrates his seventy-fifth birthday today, Saturday, January 27
Additional title: [Captions under individual images:] The ex-kaiser's study; with his writing-desk on the left and the library beyond: a room crowded with writing materials, papers--including "The illustrated London news"--portraits, pictures, and ornaments. A view from the drawing-room of Princess Hermine, the ex-kaiser's wife: the park, Doorn House. Almost as full as the study: the library, which, as noted under another photograph, adjoins the room the ex-kaiser devotes to his desk-work, much of which is entailed by the many letter received daily. An ancesto honoured in the house of exile: a bronze statue of Frederick the Great in the vestibule opening on to the park. Husband and wife: the ex-kaiser and Princess Hermine (styled The Empress, at Doorn House) outside the "orangery." Photographed in anticipation of the seventy-fifth birthday: the ex-kaiser and his wife in the reception-room
