EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the 16th century, showcasing the intricate craftsmanship of a skilled clockmaker. Created by Jost Amman and featured in Paul Lacroix's book "The Arts of the Middle Ages and at the Period of the Renaissance" (1870), this wood engraving captures a moment in time where trade and industry flourished. In this bustling workshop, we witness a dedicated horologist diligently working on his latest creation. With hammer in hand, he meticulously hammers away at a delicate piece, ensuring every detail is perfect. The workbench is adorned with various tools of the trade, highlighting the precision required for such an occupation. A customer stands nearby, eagerly observing as their future timekeeping companion takes shape before their eyes. The clockmaker's expertise shines through as he effortlessly navigates his craft with confidence and skill. Amidst an era marked by innovation and progress, this image serves as a testament to human ingenuity. Clockmaking was not only an art form but also an essential profession that shaped society's perception of time itself. Through this monochrome masterpiece, Jost Amman immortalizes both his own artistic talent and pays homage to those who dedicated their lives to mastering horology during the 16th century. As we gaze upon this print today, we are reminded of our timeless fascination with craftsmanship from centuries past.
