Theo van Hoytema’s *Kalenders voor januari, mei en juli 1904* is a set of three calendar designs, each framed with a decorative border. The artist, known for his Art Nouveau style, utilizes stylized floral and geometric motifs. The design features a bird in each panel, including a kingfisher, a peacock, and a bird perched on a tree branch, creating a cohesive visual language across the piece. The calendars, printed in a green tone, were likely intended for the months of January, May, and July, as their titles suggest. The piece is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offering a glimpse into the graphic art and design trends of the early 20th century.
