Jasper Johns's "The Seasons [1/2 proof of cut plate "Spring"]" is a 1990 print that reflects the artist's signature style. The print features a complex composition with layered imagery, including a ladder, a figure, a rabbit, and geometric shapes, all rendered in shades of grey. The print is a cut plate, meaning that the image was created by cutting away portions of the printing plate, creating the contrasting dark and light areas. The work is a testament to Johns's exploration of everyday objects and their potential for symbolic representation.
