This anonymous Dutch etching, titled "Mei: Jongevrouw met een bloemenkrans", depicts a woman in a garden, likely representing the month of May. The artwork, dated 1670-1726, showcases a woman with a wreath of flowers in her hair, holding a bouquet of roses. The print is a fine example of the artistic tradition of personifying months as figures adorned with flowers and symbols of the season. The use of an inscription at the bottom, including the word "Maius," confirms the association with the month of May.
