A folder bound in orange cloth, with a charcoal intervention by Alfons Borrell, that contains four copper-plate etchings, one for each season: winter, spring, and summer are finished with the incorporation of carborundum, while the piece for autumn is made with two plates. In spring, the green mark is hand-made by the artist. The prints are joined by the line that runs through them, while the interior this line is resolved in etching, on the folder it is achieved with an original drawn line, which converts each folder into a unique piece.
