three senses

Description

Hand-cut art wooden jigsaw puzzle of 900 pieces - Made in France and environmentally friendly.

In this work, Bruegel the Elder illustrates three of the five senses using a lively feast: hearing is represented through a lute player and children singing; touch is symbolised by a woman caressing a mink; taste is evoked via another woman ready to eat oysters. Every compositional element adds to an interconnected representation of the senses, rich in detail. The canvas can be admired at the Prado Museum in Madrid.

Assemble this puzzle rich in details and have fun guessing what belongs to each of the senses. The musical instruments and the monkey pulling the hair of a Cupid strengthen the themes of hearing and touch. The works of art visible in the background, such as 'The Annunciation', 'The wedding at Cana' and 'The dentist' also evoke the three senses.

Size: 21 x 14 inches approx.
