Theo van Hoytema’s *Kalenderbladen van juli, oktober en september, met korenschoven, zwanen en konijnen* (1901), now in the Rijksmuseum, is a set of three calendar panels depicting the months of July, October, and September. Each panel features a distinct color scheme and nature scene, with July showcasing a stack of wheat sheaves, October depicting a swan in a marsh landscape, and September presenting a wooded scene. These intricately detailed illustrations, framed by decorative borders with insects and stylized plants, showcase van Hoytema's mastery of Art Nouveau style. The work is a testament to the artist’s interest in depicting the beauty and natural rhythms of the Dutch countryside.
