One of Mucha's most endearing and enduring sets, with each panel surrounded by a cameo-like ornamental motif.One of Mucha's most endearing and enduring sets... Spring is a blonde sylph who seems to be fashioning a makeshift lyre out of a bent green branch and her own hair, with some birds as interested spectators. Summer... sits dreamily on the bank of a pond, cooling her feet in the water and resting her head against a bush. Autumn is an auburn lady, making ready to partake of the ripe grape. Winter, her brown hair barely visible as she huddles in a long green cloak, snuggles by the snow-covered tree trying to warm a shivering bird with her breath... All four panels were printed in smaller format and placed in an ornamental frame, with the names of the seasons on a decorated background underneath. Each panel is surmounted by a cameo-like ornamental motif. For unknown reason, Summer comes first, then Spring, Fall, and Winter."" (Rennert/Weill, pp.90, 96)
