專家說明

James Scholefi(e)ld working Strand, London circa 1747-1760.
Related 'Wall Clock' patterns with scrolled pediments in the French 'picturesque' manner featured in Lock and Copland's New Book of Ornaments, 1752 (pl. 12) while Thomas Johnson's Collection of Designs, 1758 illustrated related bracket-clock patterns. The early 20th century collection formed by Mr. E.L. Rice contained a mural or 'cartel' clock of the present pattern, with a movement by James Scholefild (P. Macquoid and R. Edwards, The Dictionary of English Furniture, London, 1924, vol. II, p. 117, fig. 49).
