"Brief aan Philip Zilcken" is a handwritten letter from the French art critic and writer Philippe Burty to Philip Zilcken, possibly dated between 1890 and 1893. This letter, likely written in French, features a light wash of ink on the page, creating an abstract design of bamboo-like stalks and leaves in the background. It is a beautiful and evocative document that gives us a glimpse into the world of late 19th-century art criticism. Burty was a key figure in the development of Japonisme in France.
