EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Description of the Five Senses" takes us on a journey through the diverse experiences of human perception. In this synoptique painting by Jules Delbruck, we witness an array of individuals engaging with their senses in unique ways. From left to right, our eyes are drawn to an infant opening her eyes to her mother, symbolizing the wonder and curiosity that comes with discovering the world around us. Next, we see an old woman reading with glasses, reminding us of the importance of sight as we age and how it enriches our lives through literature and knowledge. Intriguingly, a little boy captures our attention as he plays with a long view device that allows him to see from a long distance. This highlights not only his fascination with exploring far-off places but also emphasizes how vision can connect us to distant landscapes and cultures. Moving further along, another individual is seen using a microscope—a powerful tool that enhances our ability to observe microscopic details and delve into realms unseen by the naked eye. Lastly, we encounter a blind man who represents touch as his primary sense for perceiving the world. His presence serves as a poignant reminder that even without sight, one can still experience life's beauty through other senses. This remarkable engraving from 1860 offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on their own sensory experiences while appreciating the diversity in how humans perceive their surroundings.
