Briefkaart aan Philip Zilcken Possibly 1898

This postcard, possibly dated 1898, is a handwritten note from Vittorio Pica to Philip Zilcken. The postcard was sent from the Italian town of Hélène-villa, which is now a suburb of Ventimiglia in the Liguria region of Italy. It was sent to Zilcken, most likely in La Roya, France. This postcard provides a glimpse into the personal correspondence of the Italian artist Vittorio Pica. The postcard's recipient, Philip Zilcken, is not known to have been a major figure in Pica's life, and therefore it is possible that this is simply a casual letter from an acquaintance.
