This 1923 woodcut by Ferdinand van Wolde, titled *Kalenderblad oktober met stadsgezicht in Amsterdam*, depicts a narrow street in Amsterdam with a tall church tower dominating the scene. The artist, known for his depictions of Dutch cityscapes, uses a simplified line style to convey the atmosphere of the historic district. The calendar at the bottom, indicating October, connects the artwork to the tradition of illustrated calendars, which were popular at the time. Van Wolde's masterful technique and focus on the details of Amsterdam's architecture contribute to the artwork's timeless charm.
