"Brief aan Johan Philip van der Kellen" is a handwritten letter from Henri Wouters, a Belgian painter and sculptor, to Johan Philip van der Kellen, dated between 1890 and 1899. The letter, housed in the Rijksmuseum, appears to be a response to a request for artwork. Wouters expresses his gratitude and proposes a price of 15 francs for a piece titled "garnalenvischers," likely a reference to shrimp fishermen. This letter provides a glimpse into the business side of Wouters' artistic career and his interactions with collectors.
