Immerse yourself in the epic of Ulysses with a French Empire gilded bronze clock, a tribute to Homer's Odyssey
The clock rests on zoomorphic feet formed by owls and snakes, adding a touch of mystery and symbolism to its aesthetics.
On the base, appliqué motifs represent the attributes of the goddess Minerva, offering a perfect balance between classical art and Empire style.
This model is closely related to the one in London's Victoria & Albert Museum, testifying to its historical importance and artistic value.
Illustrated in "La pendule française, 2ème partie, Tardy, 1969" page 372.
