"Song of the Times" (Dutch: "Gezang des Tijds") is an 1893 lithograph by the Dutch-Indonesian artist Jan Toorop, who was a prominent figure in the Symbolist movement and known for his unique style that blended elements of Art Nouveau, Pointillism, and Indonesian motifs. This work is considered one of Toorop's masterpieces and reflects his preoccupation with the spiritual and the mystical, themes that are characteristic of Symbolism.

The lithograph is notable for its intricate design and the use of sinuous lines that create a rhythmic flow across the composition, a hallmark of Toorop's mature style. "Song of the Times" depicts a procession of figures that seem to be moving through time and space, embodying the anxieties and the social dynamics of the fin de siècle period. The figures are interwoven with text and musical notation, suggesting a synthesis of the arts and an allegorical narrative that speaks to the cultural and philosophical concerns of the era.

Toorop's work is often interpreted as a commentary on the human condition, and "Song of the Times" is no exception. It is thought to represent the collective experience of humanity, with an emphasis on the themes of life, death, and the passage of time. The piece is imbued with a sense of movement and transformation, which may be seen as reflecting the artist's views on the evolution of society and the role of art in a changing world.

"Song of the Times" is held in high regard for its technical excellence and its evocative power. It is a prime example of Toorop's ability to fuse various artistic influences into a coherent and compelling visual language. The work is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, where it continues to be studied and admired for its aesthetic qualities and its rich symbolic content.
