A BERLIN (K.P.M.) PORCELAIN RETICULATED MANTEL CLOCK
LATE 19TH CENTURY, BLUE SCEPTRE AND IRON-RED ORB MARKS, INCISED 5997. AND CYPHERS, PAINTED 3862, THE CLOCK WORKS STAMPED LENZKIRCH, INDISTINCTLY SIGNED
In the Neo-Rococo taste, of architectural form, the pierced top surmounted by a bust of Aurora above a blue-ground dial, the shoulders of the dome applied with masks, finely painted with forest scenes emblematic of the Seasons, the backplate with stylzied Art Nouveau flowers
25 in. (63.5 cm.) high, 13 in. (33 cm.) wide, 8 in. (20 cm.) deep

专家说明

With its incorporation of Art Nouveau gilt scrollwork, the present clock represents a slight shift away from the traditional Neo-Rococo style favored by the manufactory's artistic director, Alexander Kips (1858-1910). For a massive porcelain box painted with a similar side panel of a fountain, likely by the same hand, see F. Dietz, Blühende Zeit der KPM, Petersburg, 2013, p. 476.
