Brief aan Philip Zilcken Possibly 1891

This is a sketch by Félix Hilaire Buhot titled "Brief aan Philip Zilcken." It is likely a preliminary study for a larger work. The artwork contains several sketches in ink on paper including a seascape with a small boat, and a scene featuring a figure in a doorway and a tower. The work is dated "Possibly 1891." While Buhot's work is often associated with the French Impressionist movement, he was also a pioneer of etching and aquatint. The Rijksmuseum holds this piece in its collection.
