Seasons is SIRIS listed sculpture by Larry Anderson. It is bronze and located in Stranahan Park near 555 N Summit St, Toledo, OH 43604.

The Smithsonian website says the inspiration for the name of the sculpture came from the message of Ecclesiastes, chapter 13 in the Old Testament. According to the sculptor, "the sculpture depicts people sharing with people".

It further describes the work as "Two figures -- an elderly man, dressed in slacks, a collared shirt, and shoes, sitting on a bench with his elbows resting on his knees and his hands extended outward and a young girl, dressed in shorts, a t-shirt, and shoes. She wears her hair in pig-tails, and kneels in front of the man offering him a leaf with her proper right hand. The sculpture rests on a square foundation."
