November
Van Hoytema was one of the important graphic designers in Holland during the late nineteenth-early twentieth century. He was best known for his images of the natural world, in particular birds. His popularity was principally due to his children’s books – the Met has one of these in the collection (1970.685.3) - and his calendars. The present lithograph was produced as the calendar page for the month of November in his calendar for 1907. The Met also has a signed impression of the central image that was released individually (2016.593).
