EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning wall clock, created by American artist Therkel Anderson in the late 1930s, is a beautiful example of decorative arts from the 20th century. The clock, which measures approximately 24 inches in diameter, is a masterful blend of carved wood, watercolour, coloured pencil, and graphite on paperboard. The wooden clock face is intricately carved with floral designs and geometric patterns, giving it a distinctive and elegant appearance. The clock's hands and numbers are painted in bold colours, making it easy to read the time. The clock's chimes add to its charm, providing a gentle reminder of the passing hours. This period item, which hails from the thirties and forties, is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the United States during this time. The clock's wood carving technique showcases Anderson's exceptional skill and attention to detail. The clock's design is a reflection of the Art Deco and Art Moderne styles that were popular during the 1930s and 1940s. It is a unique and eye-catching addition to any home or gallery, and its timeless beauty makes it a cherished piece of American art. The clock is currently on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., as part of the Index of American Design, a collection that documents and celebrates the decorative arts of the United States from the Colonial period to the present day. This clock is a reminder of the rich artistic history of America and the enduring beauty of traditional craftsmanship.
