Commissioned in 1565 and depicting rural life in Northern Europe, Bruegel’s series consisted of a suite of six paintings spread across the year. At that time the seasons were divided into paired months, thus having six. Bruegel’s works, including Hunters in the Snow, The Harvesters, and The Gloomy Day, are some of the best-known paintings in the world.Inspired by the financial crisis, Graham began photographing the major US bank headquarters on Park Avenue. After a year, he began to sense a connection between his images, with their panoply of activity spread across sidewalks and courtyards, to Bruegel’s iconic images. This inspired him to create his own Seasons, exchanging peasant life in 16th century Flanders for the finance world of 21st century New York.

Each image in The Seasons examines the briefest fractions of time, just 1/1000th of a second, where humanity is revealed mid-step, walking, eating, talking, laughing, and gesturing. The photographs are large, and though made using the simplest of technique—a single exposure with a handheld camera—they are mesmerizing in their detail and color.
