David Teniers the Younger, a prominent Flemish Baroque painter, is celebrated for his detailed genre scenes and his ability to capture the essence of everyday life in 17th-century Flanders. One of his notable series is "The Five Senses," which includes the painting "Smelling." This series, created around the mid-17th century, is an exemplary representation of Teniers' skill in blending allegorical themes with vivid, lifelike depictions of human activity.

"Smelling" is a fascinating work that delves into the sensory experience of scent. In this painting, Teniers employs his characteristic attention to detail and vibrant color palette to bring the scene to life. The composition typically features a domestic or tavern setting, common in Teniers' oeuvre, where figures are engaged in activities that highlight the sense of smell. These activities might include the sniffing of flowers, the aroma of food, or the scent of tobacco, all rendered with a keen eye for realism and a touch of humor.

Teniers' ability to convey the subtleties of human expression and interaction is evident in "Smelling." The figures in the painting are often depicted with animated gestures and facial expressions that suggest their engagement with the olfactory experience. This focus on the human element, combined with meticulously rendered surroundings, creates a vivid snapshot of 17th-century life and its sensory dimensions.

The "Five Senses" series, including "Smelling," reflects the Baroque fascination with the human senses and their role in experiencing the world. Teniers' work in this series not only serves as an artistic exploration of sensory perception but also as a cultural document that offers insights into the daily lives and environments of his contemporaries. Through "Smelling," Teniers invites viewers to appreciate the richness of sensory experiences and the artistry involved in capturing them on canvas.
