A friend has sent me a link to an interview with the exiled Kaiser Wilhelm II at Doorn in May 1922. Conducted and written up by Baron Clemens von Radowitz-Nei it was published in the New York Times.
It provides an interesting insight into the Kaiser's ideas and assessment of the situation at that time, and his comments, or lack thereof, on various contemporaries. The article can be read here - it requires a bit of scrolling down to read.

This photograph conveys an image not dissimilar to that in the text of the interview,
although here he is in uniform.

Huis Doorn is now a museum, and there are pictures of it here.
