EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of technology from the 19th century - "A Musical Watch By The Clockmaker Recordon". Published in London in 1820, this illustration is extracted from Abraham Rees' renowned Cyclopaedia or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences and Literature. The image presents an intricate plan and diagram of a musical watch, meticulously crafted by the skilled hands of clockmaker Recordon. This antique timepiece embodies both elegance and innovation, reflecting the ingenuity prevalent during that era. Every detail has been thoughtfully captured in this drawing: the delicate mechanism that measures time with precision, the harmonious fusion of music within its structure, and the artistry involved in its making. It serves as a testament to the craftsmanship and expertise possessed by watchmakers like Recordon. As we gaze upon this fascinating illustration, we are transported back to a time when horology was at its zenith. The cyclopaedic knowledge contained within Rees' dictionary provides us with invaluable insights into not only clockmaking but also various other arts, sciences, and literature. Ken Welsh's expertly printed photograph allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity inherent in these historical timepieces. It reminds us how far we have come technologically while honoring our rich heritage rooted in mechanical marvels such as this musical watch by Recordon.
