What happens

Proklamationen af Kong Frederik VIII er en dansk dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1906 instrueret af Ole Olsen. Kong Frederik VIII's proklamation blev foretaget af konseilspræsident Jens Christian Christensen (1856-1930) den 30. januar 1906. Efter 43 år som kronprins og i en alder af 63 år blev Frederik endelig konge. Han havde gennem årene stået i skyggen af sin fader, der ikke ønskede indblanding fra sin ellers både interesserede og flittige søn. Optagelsen findes i flere versioner, dette er Ole Olsens / Nordisk Films. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
