EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a detailed section of the painting "The five senses young women in a landscape with banquet (taste), music (hear), mirror (view), bouquet of flowers (smell) and caress (touch)" by Franz Francken II le Jeune. Created in the 17th century, this masterpiece measures 0.65x0.9 meters and is housed at the Musee des Augustins in Toulouse, France. In this particular scene, we witness an allegorical representation of the five senses through young women immersed in a lush landscape. Each woman embodies a specific sense: taste is symbolized by the sumptuous banquet before them; hearing is represented by a musician playing an instrument; view is depicted through the presence of mirrors reflecting their surroundings; smell emanates from a beautiful bouquet of flowers held delicately by one of the figures; and touch is conveyed through gentle caresses exchanged between two individuals. Francken's attention to detail and mastery of Flemish style are evident throughout this artwork. The composition not only invites viewers to contemplate each sense individually but also encourages them to ponder how these senses intertwine to create our perception and experience of the world around us. This print captures both the beauty and complexity inherent in Francken's work, offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate his skillful portrayal of symbolism, musicality, nature, femininity, and sensory perception within a single frame.
