Description
This impressive French Louis XV style gilt bronze cartel clock pays homage to Jacques Caffièri's renowned design. Its cartouche-shaped case beautifully captures the essence of sunrise and sunset, serving as the backdrop for its intricate detailing. At its zenith sits a putto, accompanied by doves, guiding Venus' chariot across a canvas of clouds in front of a majestic sunburst—an embodiment of celestial beauty and mythology.
The sides are adorned with exquisitely crafted scrolling foliage, adding a delicate touch to the clock's opulent design. The tapered lower section features a group scene portraying an astute man in the company of an eagle, likely contributing to the overall narrative or allegorical representation.
This grand piece not only showcases the technical brilliance of its design but also embodies the elegance and artistry characteristic of the Louis XV style, making it a statement of sophistication and refinement.
