EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an important mantel clock from 1906, crafted with exquisite attention to detail. The clock, designed by Josef Urban, is a testament to the Austrian School's mastery of applied art in the early 20th century. Made from mahogany, brass, mother-of-pearl, silvered metal, and blue enamel, this timepiece stands at an impressive height of 60.2cm. Originally created for the Paul Hofner restaurant in Vienna, it exudes elegance and sophistication. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship of this piece. The clock face features delicate brass hands against a blue background that adds a touch of serenity to its design. The use of mother-of-pearl and semi-precious gemstones further enhances its beauty. With no person present in the image, our focus is solely on this magnificent object itself. Its presence commands attention as it sits gracefully on a wooden mantel against a neutral backdrop. As we delve into the world of horology through this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of how artistry can be seamlessly integrated into everyday objects like clocks. This particular piece serves as both a functional timekeeping device and an artistic masterpiece that represents the rich history and talent within Austrian art during the early 20th century.
