EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning English lantern clock, dating back to the 18th century, is a prime example of the ornate and intricate Baroque art that flourished during the early modern era in Europe. Originating from the Franche-Comté region in Doubs, France, this piece showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of the time. The clock, made primarily of wood and adorned with intricate carvings, is further embellished with a richly decorated metal lantern, complete with a finely detailed bell and pendulum. The clock face, framed in elaborate gold leaf, features Roman numerals and intricate jeweled accents, adding an air of luxury and sophistication. The sinuous curves and intricate designs of the clock's decorative elements reflect the Baroque style, which emphasized grandeur, drama, and movement. This vertical, upright clock would have been a prized possession for Englishmen and Englishwomen of the time, serving both as a functional timepiece and an elegant decorative piece for their homes. The vibrant colors and intricate details of this clock make it a true masterpiece of the European artistic tradition.
