Kalenderblad voor mei 1898 1897

This calendar page for May 1898, designed by Dutch artist Theo Nieuwenhuis in 1897, is a beautiful example of Art Nouveau. It features a stylized, geometric design of cherry branches and leaves, with a central grid displaying the days and dates of the month. The vibrant colors, particularly the yellow background and red cherries, are typical of the period and add to the overall sense of optimism and vitality associated with spring. The design is both decorative and functional, making it a perfect example of how Art Nouveau artists brought beauty to everyday objects.
