The Four Seasons and Visual Art (Summer)

Here's some of our favourite representations of Summer in visual art. We've focused on 'storm', as Vivaldi's Concerto No. 2 in G minor Op. 8, RV 315 "L'estate" (Summer) evokes a thunderstorm in it's final movement and is often in fact called 'Storm'.

1. Howard Hodgkin (1932 – present)
A Storm (1977)


2. Peter Lanyon (1918-1964) 
Zennor Storm (1958)



3. Henry Moore (1898-1986)
Storm at Sea (1970-4)



4. John Piper (1903-1992)
Buckden in a Storm 1977
