This is a design for a calendar by the German artist Matthäus Günther, dated to around 1760. It features an elaborate, baroque architectural design with a central empty space for a calendar grid. The top section is filled with figures that appear to be saints, perhaps referencing the historical St. Moritz Abbey in Augsburg. The drawing uses pen and brown ink and wash and is held in the Städel Museum. It showcases Günther's expertise in both decorative arts and religious imagery.
