Brief aan Philip Zilcken Possibly 1911 - 1916

This letter was written by Hendricus Petrus Bremmer to Philip Zilcken in June 1911 in The Hague. Imagine Bremmer hunched over his writing desk, pen in hand, meticulously forming each letter with ink on paper. You can feel the weight of each stroke, the deliberate crafting of words to convey a specific message. I can only imagine what Bremmer might have been thinking as he penned this note. It’s a glimpse into his thoughts, a snapshot of a moment frozen in time. It reminds me of the correspondence between artists like Van Gogh and his brother Theo. It highlights the power of the written word to connect people across time and space, bridging gaps between individuals and communities. I love to see artists in an ongoing conversation, exchanging ideas and inspiring one another’s creativity.
