Inscribed to the German dermatologist Alwin Scharlau: "1917 haben Sie mein Autograf verlangt. Die Postkarte wurde verlegt bis jetzt, und hiermit habe ich das Vergnügen Ihnen meine Namenszeichnung zu überbringen [...] Ich und meine Frau samt einige Freunde übernachteten im Rostock Son[n]tag-Mondtag [!] im Rostocker Hafen auf unserer Reise mit Auto von Stockholm ab nach Rom. Reisen jetzt weiter durch Holland [...]". Signed twice (one recto and verso).
Specializing in landscape painting, Schultzberg was inspired by his native Sweden, especially Dalarna and Bergslagen, as well as by Corsica, France and Italy. He became a member of the Stockholm Academy in 1900 and was awarded a gold medal at the 1904 Saint Louis World Fair for organizing the Swedish exhibition.
Self-addressed by the collector. The Mecklenburg physician Scharlau (b. 1888) assembled a collection of artists' autographs by personal application.
