Description: | Spring is represented by the cherub-like children with flowers in this scene. The child on the right holding a sickle and a sheaf of corn represents Summer. The low viewpoint of the picture indicates that it was meant to be placed high, perhaps above a door, as part of a formal room setting. Jakob De Wit was a Dutch artist, whose decorative pictures of children were influenced by paintings by Peter Paul Rubens. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | children people | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
