Briefkaart aan Jan Veth before 1916

This postcard, from Wally Moes to Jan Veth, probably made with ink and paper, feels like a small, intimate gesture across time. Imagine Wally holding the pen, the ink flowing onto the card, each word a deliberate, yet fluid movement. I wonder, what was on their mind as they wrote? The cursive script, light and airy, gives the impression of a gentle breeze, carrying thoughts and feelings between two people. It's like watching a dance, each stroke a step, a turn, a connection. You can almost feel the rhythm of their exchange. And isn't that what art is all about? A conversation, a shared moment, a connection between the artist and the viewer? Moes' postcard reminds us that even the simplest of gestures can carry profound meaning, bridging gaps and creating connections across time and space. It's a testament to the enduring power of human expression, echoing through the ages, inspiring us to reach out, to connect, to create.
