EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing "Allegory of Hearing" a masterpiece created by Jan van Kessel and Hendrik van Balen. The painting, housed in the Musee d Art et d Histoire in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France, is an oil on canvas representation of sound and music. In this allegorical scene, we witness a harmonious blend of various elements symbolizing the sense of hearing. A talented female organist takes center stage as she skillfully plays her instrument, surrounded by enchanting musical instruments such as mandolins, harps, cellos, and even a parrot perched nearby. The composition also includes cherubic putti and a curious monkey that add whimsy to the scene. These playful figures represent the joyous nature of music and its ability to captivate both humans and animals alike. Amidst this harmonious setting stands a majestic deer attentively listening to the melodious tunes filling the air. This inclusion serves as a reminder that music has no boundaries; it can touch all living creatures regardless of their species or form. Through this stunning artwork captured in this photo print, viewers are transported into an interior world where sound becomes tangible. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the power that lies within our sense of hearing – reminding us how fortunate we are to experience such auditory delights in our lives.
