The Four Seasons is a 1641 by Wenceslaus Hollar, a Baroque work, depicting Bohemia, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman standing in front of a window, holding a fan in her right hand. She is wearing a dress with puffy sleeves and a head covering. The window has a view of a body of water, and there are curtains on either side. The woman is also holding a pair of gloves in her left hand, and there is a melon on the table in front of her. The woman's face is serious, and she is looking straight ahead. The background of the painting is light, and the overall mood is calm. The woman's clothing and the style of the painting suggest that it is from the Baroque period. The painting is held at The Cleveland Museum of Art.
