This calendar sheet from 1901 by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema features three separate scenes. The central panel showcases a delicate depiction of birds in flight, while the flanking panels include a lizard and a close-up view of birds perched on a branch. Each scene is enclosed within a decorative frame adorned with floral elements, highlighting the intricate details and natural beauty of the artwork. This is a prime example of the artistic style prominent in the early 20th century, emphasizing nature and its delicate details. The calendar sheet, preserved in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to van Hoytema's ability to capture the essence of nature in his art.
