EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Smell (from the series The Five Senses), a captivating oil painting by Jean Raoux, captures the essence of sensory experience in the late 1720s or early 1730s. This masterpiece, found in the esteemed collection of the State A Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow, transports us to a world where nature and human connection intertwine. In this scene, we witness an elegant couple immersed in a lush garden adorned with vibrant flowers. The artist skillfully portrays their engagement with scent as they delicately hold blossoms to their noses. The woman's flowing dress and hat reflect fashionable attire of eighteenth-century France while emphasizing her graceful presence amidst nature's beauty. Raoux's attention to detail is evident through his meticulous brushstrokes that bring life to each petal and leaf. Through color and composition, he evokes not only the visual splendor but also conveys a sense of fragrance permeating the air. This artwork invites contemplation on love, sensuality, and our profound connection with nature. It serves as a testament to how art can capture fleeting moments that engage multiple senses simultaneously. As we gaze upon 'Smell, ' we are transported back centuries into an era where appreciation for both natural beauty and human connection were celebrated through artistry. "
