EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print from c1850 showcases "The Five Senses: smell, hearing, sight, touch and taste". Illustrated in a children's book in London during the 19th century, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of each sense. In this vibrant scene, we see a group of people gathered around a table filled with delicious food. The colors are rich and inviting, evoking a sense of warmth and comfort. Each person is engaged in an activity that represents one of the five senses. On the left side of the image, a woman delicately holds a flower to her nose, symbolizing smell. Beside her sits another individual playing a musical instrument, representing hearing. Across from them is someone gazing intently at an object on the table - their eyesight highlighting sight as one of our senses. Moving towards the center of the composition, we find two individuals engaging in tactile experiences that represent touch. One person reaches out to feel an object on the table while another lifts up food to taste it - emphasizing these sensory connections. This lithograph not only serves as an artistic representation but also reminds us how vital our senses are for experiencing life fully. It transports us back to 19th-century Britain when such illustrations were cherished by both children and adults alike.
