This is a postcard, possibly dated 1918, addressed to Philip Zilcken by Dutch artist Hendrikus Hubertus van Kol (1852-1925). It is part of the "RPV (Coll. Zilcken)" collection, which contains numerous personal effects from the life of Philip Zilcken. While not a traditional artwork, this handwritten postcard provides insight into the artist's personal life and his connection to the recipient, allowing us to see him outside of his artistic practice. The handwritten text on the postcard suggests a casual and possibly friendly relationship between the two men.
