EDITORS COMMENTS
Feeling," plate five from Jacob van der Heyden's series "The Five Senses," is an exquisite antique print depicting the sense of touch. Dated n.d., this engraving and etching on ivory laid paper originates from Flanders, Belgium, and is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the region. The image features a female figure, her head and shoulders framed within a circular composition. With her eyes closed and a serene expression on her face, she reaches out with one hand to touch a textured object, while the other hand rests gently on her chest. The scene is simply yet powerfully conveyed through the intricate lettering and Latin text that surrounds the figure, adding depth and meaning to the concept of "touch." The detailed engraving and etching techniques used by van der Heyden bring the image to life, with the contrast between the smooth ivory paper and the textured lines creating a tactile experience for the viewer. The use of black and white further enhances the sense of timelessness and historical significance, making this print a must-see for any art enthusiast or collector. This beautiful work of art is currently on exhibit at the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. With its intricate details, historical significance, and timeless beauty, "Feeling," plate five from Jacob van der Heyden's "The Five Senses," is a true masterpiece of Flemish art and a testament to the enduring power of the senses.
