This is a handwritten letter from Dutch artist Henri Verstijnen (1882-1940) dated December 26, 1931. The letter is addressed to "Jonkheer Hendrik Teding van Berkhout," and it refers to a past exhibition of graphic art, potentially the first exhibition by the "Vereeniging van Beoefenaars der Grafische Kunsten." Verstijnen discusses the exhibition and the process of creating art prints, using words like "techniek" and "professore." The letter, therefore, reveals valuable insight into the artist's creative process and his engagement with the art community in the early 20th century.
