專家說明

The Classical motif of the present clock derives from several models which appeared towards the end of the 18th century. A related clock with similar billing doves and sphinxes is based on a design by Jean Baptiste Lepaute (d.1801) and is currently part of the Wallace Collection (F269).
The design, with it's elegant sphinx supports, textured drapery, and oblong base, closely relates to a signed garniture by Baccarat sold by The Collection of Marshall B. Coyne, Sotheby's, New York, 6 June 2001, lot 250 ($104,250).
