1899 Calendar Cold Greenaway Harvest Kate Months Phenomena Rain Responding Seasons Twelve Umbrella Wind
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting 1899 Kate Greenaway calendar, a historical treasure from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases twelve young women gracefully responding to the natural phenomena of the changing seasons. Each month is represented by a young woman, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, holding an umbrella or embracing the elements with open arms. The first image of the calendar depicts January, where a young woman bundled up against the cold weather, her breath visible in the frosty air, watches as snowflakes gently fall around her. In contrast, April brings blooming flowers and a young woman playfully dancing in the rain, her umbrella raised above her head. May represents the beginning of the harvest season, with a young woman cradling a basket of ripe fruits in her arms, while June shows a woman in a sun hat, shielding her eyes from the bright sun as she gazes out at a field of wildflowers. The calendar continues through the year, with July's image of a woman enjoying a summer picnic, August's depiction of a woman picking ripe apples in an orchard, and September's scene of a woman in a warm shawl, watching as autumn leaves fall gently from the trees. October brings the first hints of winter, with a young woman in a cloak and bonnet, her umbrella held close against the wind and rain. November's image shows a woman in a fur-trimmed coat, her face turned up to the sky as she watches the leaves fall around her. Finally, December's scene features a young woman in a festive red dress, her arms full of holly and mistletoe as she prepares for the holiday season. This beautiful and intricately detailed calendar, created by renowned illustrator Kate Greenaway, is a testament to the natural beauty and grace of the changing seasons and the women who gracefully navigate them.
