EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical illustration from the Festkalender published in Leipzig around 1910 captures the essence of March with its playful depiction of a gusty wind. The colorful lithograph, created by renowned German artist Hans Thoma, showcases an old male figure personifying the month as he travels through the sky. With puffed cheeks and blowing hair, this spirited character seems to be kicking up quite a storm. Surrounding him are fluffy clouds and a flock of birds soaring alongside him, adding to the sense of movement and energy. The presence of cherubs or putti further enhances the ethereal nature of this scene. These mischievous little beings often symbolize love or innocence in art, but here they seem to represent the unseen forces that bring about springtime renewal. Thoma's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; his use of vivid colors brings life to each element within this enchanting composition. This delightful print not only serves as a visual representation of March but also evokes feelings of anticipation for warmer days ahead. As part of a private collection now available for public enjoyment, this artwork reminds us that even centuries-old illustrations can still inspire awe and wonder today.
