EDITORS COMMENTS
Taste," plate four from Jacob van der Heyden's series "The Five Senses," is an exquisite antique print that showcases the Flemish artist's mastery of engraving and etching techniques. Dating back to an undetermined period, this monochromatic artwork is a captivating depiction of the sense of taste. The print features a woman, her head and shoulders framed by a circular border, intently focusing on a plate before her. The intricate lettering in Latin script around the border reads, "Gustus," the Latin word for taste. The woman's expression is one of deep concentration, her eyes closed as she savors the flavors of the food in front of her. The plate before her is not visible in its entirety, but the artist has skillfully etched and engraved the texture and shape of the food, giving the impression of a rich, savory dish. The ivory laid paper adds to the overall elegance and antiquity of the piece. This print is a testament to van der Heyden's artistic abilities and his ability to capture the essence of the human experience through the depiction of the five senses. It is a valuable addition to any art collection, museum, or gallery, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire and captivate us today. The "Taste" print by Jacob van der Heyden is a stunning example of historic art, with its intricate details and masterful use of black and white tones. It is a must-see for any art enthusiast, and a reminder of the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place.
