"The Five Senses - Taste" is an engraving by the French artist Abraham Bosse (1602–1676), created in the 17th century as part of a series depicting the five human senses. Bosse, known for his detailed and didactic engravings, was a prominent figure in the French art scene during the reign of King Louis XIII and the early years of Louis XIV. His works often reflect the social, cultural, and scientific interests of the time, including the exploration of human perception.

In "The Five Senses - Taste," Bosse illustrates the sense of taste through a domestic scene rich in detail and symbolism. The engraving typically features figures engaged in the act of eating or drinking, surrounded by an array of foods, beverages, and tableware that not only represent the sense of taste but also provide insight into the culinary practices and social customs of 17th-century France.

As part of the series on the five senses, this work is significant for its contribution to the genre of allegorical representation, a common theme in Baroque art. Each sense in the series is personified and depicted within a narrative context, inviting viewers to engage with the artworks on multiple levels. Bosse's engravings are valued for their combination of technical skill, aesthetic appeal, and the window they offer into the intellectual and artistic discourses of the Baroque period.

"The Five Senses - Taste," along with the other engravings in the series, is considered an important example of Abraham Bosse's oeuvre and of the thematic exploration of the senses in art history. The series is often analyzed for its artistic merit, as well as for its reflection of the scientific and philosophical understanding of sensory experience during the artist's lifetime.
