Bottom Section of Cabinet with Allegorical Figures of the Seasons
Cabinets of this period were typically constructed in two separate sections. The bottom section alone is in the Chamber of Wonders at The Walters, used as a side board. The bottom sections were sometimes used on their own and the top section of this one has significant later repairs.
