"Kalenderblad juli met flamingo's" (Calendar page July with flamingos), a 1916 artwork by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema, features a whimsical depiction of flamingos in a calendar format. The calendar, which is for the month of July, is surrounded by detailed illustrations of the birds, each with a distinct pose. The artwork's simple yet charming style, common in van Hoytema's work, uses soft colors and delicate lines to evoke a sense of tranquility. The Rijksmuseum holds this piece as a testament to the artistry of the artist, who tragically died shortly after its creation in 1917.
