Item Details
Description
Elizabethan style table clock; circa 1840.
Gilt bronze.
Measurements: 53 x 42,5 x 14 cm.
Elizabethan style table clock, made in gilded bronze and conceived as a free-standing sculpture raised on an elaborate stepped pedestal. The base is prismatic, with wavy edges that reveal the heritage of the style, with turned feet, chiselled details and a central fan-shaped palmette that comes from the ornamental background of the neoclassical period, which was common at this time. The upper level or body rises above the base and is notable for its representation of an aesthetic pattern based on palmettes and vegetal elements. The upper area has a prismatic design with clean geometric forms. At the top is a sculpture of a young lady leaning on the clock case, with black Roman numerals and openwork hands. On the other side of the clock, a figure of a man holds a book while raising his hand, indicating that he is reciting.
