Summary[edit]

Description
English: Auditus (Hearing) from a set of the five senses

Abraham Bosse (1602-1676)
1635
France
Etching and engraving

Artists often chose to represent the subject 'Hearing' with a scene of music making. Here, four adults and a boy are seated round a table in an expensively-decorated interior, singing and playing. The woman in the centre is playing a lute, and the man on the right, a viola de gamba. The music is probably divided into five parts as each person is following his or her own book of music. The cartouche at the bottom of the print containing the title in Latin and French is decorated with a pair of ears.
