Brief aan Philip Zilcken Possibly 1911 - 1919

This is a handwritten letter or envelope addressed to Philip Zilcken, a painter. It was possibly sent between 1911 and 1919 by Vittorio Pica, a well-known Italian art historian and museum director, who lived from 1864 to 1930. This letter is a piece of art historical ephemera, giving us a glimpse into Pica's correspondence and possibly providing insights into his artistic connections and interests during that period. The letter is a simple example of epistolary art, with handwritten text containing information about the sender and recipient. The Italian postage stamps on the envelope are also of historical interest, as they reflect the postal system of the time.
