The Four Seasons is a 1635 by Abraham Bosse, a Baroque work, depicting Engraving Proces, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows four scenes, each representing a season. It's interesting because the scenes are arranged in a way that tells a story. The details in each scene, like the clothing and activities, give clues about what time of year it is.

Abraham Bosse (c. 1604 – 14 February 1676) was a French artist, mainly as a printmaker in etching, but also in watercolour.
