The winter sheet depicts a lady standing in a public square, with a church and municipal building in the background, spring shows a lady picking flowers in a pastoral lane, summer shows a lady sitting on a bench next to a hayfield, and the fall sheet depicts a lady mailing letters on a city street, with yellow flowers in her hand. Wikipedia, "Richard Veenfliet". The four chromolithographs were drawn by Richard Veenfliet. Veenfliet was a German-born American artist, Civil War Veteran (having fought for the Union), an architect, and an early advocate for immigration. Veenfliet moved from New York state to Michigan and would become a member of the Cincinnati Art Club. He was active in the art community until his death in 1922. A charming and richly detailed calendar. Very Good+. Very Good+ with the occasional, tiny surface rub, and a discreet tear to the right margin of both the spring and summer sheets (.5" and 1" respectively).
