r/PlaceNL is the primary community of Dutch users in r/place. The r/PlaceNL community has made a lot of recognisable artworks in past events, including the [[De Nachtwacht Painting]], the [[Zeven Provinciën Painting]], [[The Starry Night]] and more. During an r/place event, the Dutch community can often be found constructing their flag at the top of the canvas. The [https://2023.place-atlas.stefanocoding.me/ 2023] event differs from past events in that the Dutch flag was not at the top of the final canvas. This can be attributed to the fact that the [[Canvas Expansions|canvas expanded]] upwards some days after the start of the event, and that a full-scale move to the new top was deemed not possible nor required by the community.

Starting within the broader r/thenetherlands subreddit during the 2017 event, the group split off into a seperate entity and grew in size during the 2022 and 2023 events, with the r/PlaceNL Discord server passing 10,000 members near the end of the 2023 r/place. The most recognisable work made by the community found in all events they have participated in is the Dutch flag (three horizontal stripes in red, white, and blue from top to bottom), with an added banner of orange, usually on top. The latter is in reference to the popular Dutch song "Oranje boven" (Orange on top) and the orange streamer ("wimpel") flown with the flag on special occassions, which are in turn references to the relationship of the Dutch royals with their country.

The Starry Night

The Starry Night was an artwork included on all past r/place canvases, created primarily by the r/PlaceNL and r/netherlands communities. The artwork is a pixelart rendition of the famous painting "De Sterrennacht" (The Starry Night) by painter Vincent van Gogh. It has been included at three different sizes, with the 2023 edition taking up the most pixels, with a count of roughly 14000.

The Starry Night is an oil-on-canvas painting made by van Gogh in June of 1889. It shows the view he had from his asylum room window just before sunrise, although he added a fictional village. It is widely regarded as van Gogh's best work, and is one of the most recognisable pieces of Western art.

===Events===
The Starry Night has seen versions included in all three past r/place events.

====2017====
The 2017 version of The Starry Night was included as part of the Windows 95 task bar that was included at the bottom of the canvas. It is included within a window, with the icon being a number of paint brushes and a canvas, and the title "Gogh.bmp". The painting itself covers an area of 7830 pixels, exluding the window, and was created mostly by the r/netherlands community.

The creation of the work began on Saturday April 1st, 2017 around 15:00 GMT. The recreation of the painting was completed on Sunday April 2nd, around 04:30 GMT, with the artwork being included within the Windows 95 taskbar around 18:00 the same day. The entire work assumed its near final form on the third day of the event, staying roughly the same untill its end.[[File:Starry_Night_2017.png|thumb|The 2017 edition of The Starry Night as seen at the end of the event.]]
====2022====
The 2022 version of The Starry Night was included on the Dutch flag at the top of the canvas, also crossing over into the orange bar at the very top. This rendition is notably smaller than those created during the 2017 and 2023 events, with a pixel count of 1736. Notably, this version includes a picture frame, and was accompanied by a small drawing of Vincent van Gogh himself. The painting was made by the r/placeNL community.

Construction of the 2022 edition began roughly around 21:00 GMT on Saturday, April 2nd 2022. Due to its small size, the artwork was completed within roughly half an hour. However, the work continued to be tweaked well into the third day, reaching its near final form at around 11:00 GMT. The small painting of Vincent van Gogh that obscures some of the right side of the work was added later that day.[[File:Starry_Night2022.png|thumb|The 2022 edition of The Starry Night as seen at the end of the event.]]
====2023====
[[File:Starry_Night2023.png|thumb|The 2023 edition of The Starry Night as seen at the end of the event.]]

The most recent edition of The Starry Night that was featured on an r/place canvas was made during the 2023 event by the r/placeNL community. This painting is the largest of all currently made renditions, at 13969 pixels. It was included in the Dutch flag and orange bar, located in the middle of the canvas. This version is also the most accurate to the original oil painting by van Gogh, with more accurate colors and more detail.

The creation of the 2023 edition was started around 09:00 GMT on Sunday, July 23rd, and was completed roughly three hours later. It remained largely unchanged for the remainder of the event, and was still on the canvas by the time the event closed on July 25th. The bottom right of the painting is obscured by part of a collaboration between r/placeNL and r/placeDE.

KLM Airplane

2023-07-27T20:24:52Z

Stille Willem: Did some restructuring and rewriting.

During the 2022 R/place, R/placeNL built a KLM airplane. This airplane was designed after after a Boeing 737-800.

KLM is an acronym for Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij (Royal Aviation Society). The company is very important for the country of the Netherlands and for the Dutch community, as it has brought billions of Dutch citizens and international tourists to and from the Kingdom of the Netherlands since its founding in 1919. This old age also makes it the oldest airline that still operates under its original name.

The first route that KLM ever flew was established under Alfred Plesman, and KLM still flies this route with its Boeing 737's and Embraer E175/E190's. The aforementioned route is Amsterdam-London.
