EDITORS COMMENTS
The Franzoni Clock, a national treasure gracing the Statuary Hall in the United States Capitol, Washington D.C., is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of America. This chamber, devoted to sculptures of prominent Americans, proudly displays Carlo Franzoni's 1810 sculptural chariot clock, popularly known as the "Car of History." The clock's intricate design features Clio, the muse of history, recording the proceedings of the House of Representatives. Flanking the Franzoni Clock are the statues of Daniel Webster and John Stark, two esteemed figures in American history. Daniel Webster, born in 1782, was a renowned statesman, orator, and diplomat. He played a significant role in shaping the political landscape of the United States during the 19th century. John Stark, born in 1728, was a military leader during the American Revolution. His heroic actions at the Battle of Bennington are still celebrated as a turning point in the war. The Franzoni Clock, with its intricate details and historical significance, is a captivating sight for visitors to the Capitol. The clock's placement in the Statuary Hall, surrounded by the statues of other prominent Americans, serves as a reminder of the country's rich and diverse history. The clock's enduring presence in this national landmark continues to inspire awe and admiration, making it a cherished symbol of America's past and present.
