Inspired by the remarkable legacy of Johann Baptist Ritter von Spix (1781–1826), this wall calendar brings endangered species to life through art. Spix was a pioneering German biologist and explorer whose legendary 19th-century expeditions to Brazil led to the discovery and documentation of countless new animal and plant species. His meticulous fieldwork, especially in the Amazon, laid the foundation for Munich’s National Zoological Collection and advanced the world’s understanding of biodiversity. Each month features a detailed illustration of a turtle, accompanied by a short description about the specific species Spix studied and drew, blending scientific insight with artistic beauty.
We’ve chosen a curated selection of captivating turtle images to make every month special. This calendar is a true conversation starter for your home or office. When the year is over, simply cut out your favorite images and frame them—either to enjoy yourself or as thoughtful presents for friends who appreciate wildlife and conservation.
For customers in the United States and Canada, this calendar arrives in Ledger size (11×16.5 inches), while customers in the European Union, United Kingdom, Australia, and all other regions worldwide receive it in A3 size (29.7×42 cm).
