In 1894, Eugène Grasset (25 May 1845 – 23 October 1917) received a commission from the French department store La Belle Jardinière to create twelve original works of art to be used as a calendar. 

Grasset's woodcuts show women in fashionable costumes of the period each bearing a sign of the zodiac in the design. They are in gardens, the flowers of which reflect the changing seasons. With blank spaces for the calendar dates, these works were compiled into a portfolio titled "Les Mois" (The Months) and published by the Parisian publisher G. de Malherbe in 1896.
