EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Smell, 1635-38" by Abraham Bosse takes us back to the 17th century in France. The image showcases a woman fully immersed in her surroundings, exuding an air of elegance and grace. Dressed in a country-style gown adorned with delicate carnations, she stands amidst a lush garden filled with vibrant flowers. Bosse's etching beautifully captures the essence of smell as one of our senses. The woman is depicted leaning forward, delicately sniffing a blooming flower, emphasizing the importance of fragrance in this era. Her slashed sleeves add a touch of fashion-forwardness to her attire while maintaining the traditional French aesthetic. The Metropolitan Museum of Art proudly displays this artwork as part of their heritage collection. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with nature and human experiences throughout history. Abraham Bosse's attention to detail transports us into this serene moment where we can almost catch a whiff of the fragrant blossoms ourselves. This print invites us to appreciate not only the beauty found within gardens but also how our sense of smell connects us deeply to our environment.
