After her unfortunate experience of parturition Princess Wilhelmina of Prussia, married to stadhouder Prince Willem V, received two letters of comfort from her beloved godfather King Frederick II (Frederick the Great) of Prussia. These letters illustrate the special close connection there was between them. The letters also give a view on the difficult question of giving comfort after perinatal death.
