More about this artwork
The painting "Frame Of Calendar For 1901 With Women And Flowers" by Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof is a beautifully intricate design that showcases the Art Nouveau style, known for its ornate patterns, natural motifs, and flowing lines.The artwork is structured as a large frame that appears to have been designed to perhaps enclose a calendar or similar display. The main focus is on the decorative elements that include stylized floral patterns and female figures, each rendered with delicate lines and curves.At the top, the frame features a prominent arch with a central figure of a woman standing amidst an elaborate backdrop of blossoms and vines. She is depicted in a symmetrical pose, with open arms that align with the radial design surrounding her, which evokes the imagery of a saint or angel in traditional art, highlighted by what appears to be a halo-like element behind her.On the left and right sides of the arch, slightly smaller figures of women are seen, each engaged in a gentle activity with flowers, suggesting themes of beauty, nature, and fertility.
