The 5 Senses by Cecily Brown is a signed ditone print from 2025. The limited edition print takes its source from one of art history's great partnerships: The Five Senses (1617–18), a series of allegorical paintings produced jointly by Jan Brueghel the Elder and Peter Paul Rubens, now in the Prado, Madrid — in which each canvas surrounds a Rubens-painted figure with Brueghel's intricately detailed world of sensory stimuli.

Where Brueghel and Rubens treated the senses individually, Brown fuses them into a single image: a stringed instrument, a fountain, oysters and lobster, a globe — attributes of hearing, smell, taste, and sight compressed into one densely worked surface. The thick, gestural brushwork and physicality of Brown's palette do not merely depict the senses but enact them, a point underscored by her major retrospective at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 2023.
