The Four Seasons

What a dreary May bank holiday! It's more like February. So here's a summery thought to cheer us up. From 20 June to 16 September the gardens of the Dulwich Picture Gallery in London will exhibit four 15-foot-high fibreglass sculptures by Philip Haas, inspired by Giuseppe Arcimboldo's The Four Seasons. Giuseppe (1527-1593) painted fantastical "portraits" made of fruits, fungi, vegetables, flowers, fish and books. Shown is his Winter (1573) owned by the Musée du Louvre in Paris.
