Kalenderblad september met aangeschoten vogel 1917

Theo van Hoytema's "Kalenderblad september met aangeschoten vogel" is a calendar sheet for September 1917, depicting a wounded bird in flight. The drawing, rendered in black and white, showcases van Hoytema’s distinctive style, notable for its expressive lines and raw, almost childlike quality. This calendar sheet, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, was likely intended for personal use, reflecting van Hoytema's interest in nature and the passage of time. The image is a poignant reminder of the artist's untimely death in August 1917.
