Description: | Jacopo Bassano ran a very productive workshop with the help of his sons, where the production of copies/variations of popular works was common practice. The Four Seasons in particular exists in many versions. The four works all show busy scenes with typical seasonal activities going on in the foreground, in a landscape setting with signs of the Zodiac in the sky indicating the season. Spring is a rather poor rendition of the original prototype. The replica may have been executed by Francesco Bassano, who entered his father's workshop in c. 1567 until 1579 when he set up his own studio, but based on the weak quality it should probably be ascribed to a follower of Francesco. | Subjects: | allegory (season); figure; animal | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Bassano, Francesco, II (Italian painter, 1549-1592) Æ Attributed to manner of | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8810... | Go to resource |
