Autumn 1620 - 1670

Grégoire Huret's 17th-century etching *Autumn* depicts a woman, personifying the season, holding grapes and a cornucopia overflowing with fruit. Her elaborate costume, featuring a pearl necklace and a large bow, reflects the opulence of the era, while the intricate details of the vine and grapes showcase Huret's skill as a draftsman. The image is a celebration of the harvest and the bounty of nature, a common theme in Baroque art. *Autumn* is part of a larger series representing the four seasons. The etching is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
