EDITORS COMMENTS
"This exquisite table clock, dating back to the 16th century, is a prime example of the Renaissance art and jewelry craftsmanship that flourished during the early modern era in Europe. Hailing from the Franche-Comté region in Doubs, France, this vertical, upright timepiece was made in Besançon, a city renowned for its rich artistic and cultural heritage. The clock, adorned with intricate jewelry-like decorations, showcases the sinuous curves and delicate details that characterize the Renaissance style. The colorful interior of the clock houses a complex mechanism, which was a marvel of engineering during that time. The clock's exterior is adorned with intricate engravings, precious stones, and gilded metalwork, making it a true work of art. The clock's vertical design, with its elegant proportions, was a popular choice among the European elite during the Renaissance period. The clock's ornate decorations reflect the genteel tastes and refined sensibilities of the era, while its functionality underscores the importance of timekeeping in daily life. This table clock is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Western world during the Renaissance. Its intricate design and beautiful craftsmanship continue to captivate and inspire us today, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of art, artes, or decorative objects from the early modern era."
