EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Hearing: A Man Counting Coins" we are transported back in time to the 17th century. The artwork is part of the series Personifications of the Five Senses, created between 1635 and 1666 by Petrus Staverenus, a talented artist from that era. The image showcases a man deeply engrossed in his task, counting coins with intense focus. Through his concentrated expression and body language, we can almost hear the clinking sound of each coin as it lands on the table. It is evident that this man's sense of hearing plays a crucial role in his daily life. Painted with oil on wood, Staverenus skillfully captures every intricate detail, from the texture of the coins to the wrinkles on the man's face. The composition draws us into this intimate moment and invites us to contemplate how our senses shape our experiences. Displayed in a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate Staverenus' masterpiece even if we cannot view it firsthand. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' high-quality reproduction techniques, we can admire this artwork's beauty and historical significance. "Hearing: A Man Counting Coins" serves as a reminder that art has always been an avenue for exploring human existence through various perspectives - here focusing on one sense at its core.
