EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting 17th-century Dutch engraving by Martin Engelbrecht, titled "Smell, 1684-1756," we find a man and a woman, each engaged in the appreciation of different sensory experiences. The woman, adorned in elegant attire, delights in the fragrant allure of a garden filled with vibrant, floral designs and intricate ornamentation. The border of the print is adorned with rocaille elements, further emphasizing the connection between nature and the sense of smell. The man, on the other hand, takes a more unconventional approach to scent appreciation. Seated next to him is a dog, its nose buried deep in a pouch filled with tobacco. The man, with a humorous expression on his face, holds out a pipe, indicating his participation in the shared enjoyment of the aroma. The Latin and German caption above reads, "Odoriferi atque fragrantes Flores obiectant, herba tamen Tobaci nasum reficit magis meum" (They object to odoriferous and fragrant flowers, but the grass [herb] of tobacco refreshes my nose more). This charming print, with its rich color palette and intricate details, invites us to explore the world of the senses and the unique ways in which we experience them. The figures, with their individual sensory pursuits, serve as a reminder of the importance of appreciating the diverse offerings of the natural world.
