"Briefkaart aan Philip Zilcken" is a postcard by Dutch artist Jac van Looij, dating from before 1889. This artwork is a historical document, and the image is a photograph of the front of the postcard. The front is blank, except for stamps, the address "Aan den Heer Ph. Zilcken Kunstzahbilder," and a postmark reading "1889 Sep. 24, 's-Gravenhage." The artwork provides a glimpse into the postal history of the Netherlands and the handwritten address is a fascinating example of 19th century calligraphy.
