This is the back of a postcard addressed to Philip Zilcken in The Hague, Holland. It is dated 1913 and marked with a French stamp and postmark, suggesting it may have been sent from France to Holland. The handwritten note is in a foreign script, perhaps Japanese, and the stamp features a woman with a flowing gown, which could be a depiction of Marianne, the personification of the French Republic. The inscription "Fujikawa (Y.) 5" in the bottom right corner indicates the postcard's origin. The postcard, potentially a part of a larger collection, offers a glimpse into communication between France and The Netherlands in the early 20th century.
