Artists who use the four seasons in their work?

Question

I need to research some artists who depict the four seasons in their work some how, be it in a painting, mural, sculpture, anything really. The problem is, I just can't find any, does anyone know of any artists who do use the seasons in their artwork? I'll be really grateful to anyone who has any suggestions cos it's for my art coursework, thanks :)

if you want something a bit more unusual (if your whole class is doing it, I suspect there'll be a lot of Botticellis!), then how about Cy Twombley's Quattro Stagioni which is in Tate Modern
