A Large Size Gilt Bronze & Rouge Marble Clock, France, 19th Century
It combines the opulence of gilt bronze ornamentation with the richness of rouge marble, a popular material in 19th-century French decorative arts. The lion sculpture is a clear reference to the famous Medici lions, a pair of ancient and 16th-century marble sculptures, symbolizing power and grandeur. The overall style suggests a Neoclassical influence, common in French clocks of the Empire period.
