EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable wall clock created by the talented Margaret Gilmour (1860-1942). The clock, decorated in repousse with intricate Celtic entrelac designs, is a true testament to Gilmour's artistic prowess. Crafted from tin and adorned with turquoise accents, this stunning timepiece measures 45.7cm square. The close-up image allows us to appreciate the fine details of this early 20th-century masterpiece. The metalwork and sculptural elements are expertly executed, showcasing Gilmour's skillful craftsmanship. The clock face features no numbers or hands, allowing the viewer to focus solely on the ornate design. Set against a vibrant blue background, the wall clock stands as an exquisite example of applied art from the 20th century decorative arts movement. Its square shape adds a unique touch to its overall aesthetic appeal. With its pendulum gently swinging back and forth, this timepiece not only serves as a functional object but also as an elegant piece of sculpture that enhances any space it graces. The combination of repousse technique and Celtic entrelac patterns creates a harmonious blend between traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. Preserved in private collection today, this photograph captures the essence of Margaret Gilmour's artistic legacy—a beautiful fusion of form and function that continues to captivate viewers even after all these years.
