This woodcut print, created by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema in 1905, is a calendar page featuring the month of September and a black-winged stilt. The bird is depicted standing amidst a stylized green leafy background. The calendar is framed by intricate decorative borders and features the days of the week in Dutch (Zondag, Maandag, Dinsdag, Woensdag, Donderdag, Vrijdag, Zaterdag). This artwork, part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, showcases van Hoytema's distinctive style, blending natural elements with a decorative aesthetic. The stylized design and intricate details are characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement.
