EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite sculpture titled "Kneeling Girl with a Clock" by Johann Philipp Ferdinand Preiss. Standing at a height of 54.4 cm, this bronze and ivory masterpiece showcases the artist's impeccable craftsmanship. The chromed metal clock face serves as an intriguing contrast against the red background, drawing attention to the delicate features of the female figure. With no person present in the image, it allows viewers to focus solely on the dancer-like pose and graceful posture of this active girl. Manufactured with great precision, every detail is meticulously rendered, from her bended knee to her flowing dance-like movements. The brown striated marble base adds a touch of elegance and stability to this timepiece-inspired artwork. Preiss' representation of movement through his sculpting technique is truly remarkable. The artist skillfully captures both physical activity and stillness in one harmonious composition. As we admire this European artist's work, we are reminded of the rich history behind each piece created during that era. This studio shot photograph provides us with a glimpse into Preiss' creative process and highlights his mastery in metalwork. With its timeless appeal and artistic brilliance, "Kneeling Girl with a Clock" stands as a testament to German artistry in horology during the early 20th century decorative arts movement.
