No Ricci paintings have been identified by Vivaldi scholars as being the inspiration for Vivaldi. The conjecture, frequently encountered online and in program notes that Vivaldi was also inspired by a lost seasonal cycle of paintings by Marco Ricci, seems to have arisen in the 1970s after an article making general style comparisons between Vivaldi and Ricci. It is not known if Vivaldi was the author of the poetry or someone else, but the match between the music and the poetry was unique. One unusual detail about these four works was that Vivaldi also published poetry with each concerto. Marco Ricci: Landscape with Mountain and Figures © Toronto Symphony Orchestra
