EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Wall Clock (Pendule) from the 18th century. Crafted in Paris, France around 1735-1740, this exquisite timepiece is a true masterpiece of artistry and craftsmanship. The clock movement was created by Jean-Jacques Fieffe, a renowned French master who flourished between 1700 and 1770. His expertise is evident in the intricate workings of this pendulum clock, which stands as a testament to his skill and precision. The case of the clock is possibly designed by Juste-Aurele Meissonnier, an Italian-born artist who became a master in 1724. The influence of Meissonnier's design can be seen in the ornate gilt bronze detailing that adorns the clock's exterior. Made with gilt bronze, enameled metal, wood carcass, and glass elements, this wall clock exudes opulence and elegance. Its dimensions are impressive - standing at approximately 133.4 cm tall and measuring about 67.3 cm wide with a depth of 14.3 cm. This remarkable piece not only serves its practical purpose but also acts as an artistic statement within any space it occupies. It represents the pinnacle of French horology during that era and offers us a glimpse into the sophisticated tastes prevalent in Europe at that time. As we admire this print from Liszt Collection, we are transported back to an age where timekeeping was elevated to an art form –
