Each figure is distinguished by its symbolic attributes: one carries a basket overflowing with fruit representing Autumn, another holds a garland of roses for Spring, a third clasps sheaves of wheat symbolising Summer, while the fourth wraps itself in a cloak, evoking the colder months of Winter

Their expressive faces, flowing drapery and finely sculpted details reflect the enduring appeal of Renaissance and Baroque garden ornament

Naturally weathered to a mellow stone patina, the sculptures possess the character and charm expected of quality outdoor statuary

Whether arranged together as a complete set or positioned individually throughout a landscape, these delightful cherubs bring classical elegance, symmetry and timeless decorative appeal to any garden or architectural setting
