Painting-Music clock
Middle of the 19th century
Animated country conversation at the foot of a religious building, whose bell tower
supports the enamelled dial of a clock. In the distance, harbor buildings melt into a fog
in a misty distance.
The clock sets off a chime on four gongs as it passes. A music of the snuffbox type by Jules Cuendet, with winding by pulling, plays two tunes. The connection with the clock needs to be revised.
Presence of the balance and the winding keys.
(Mechanisms to be cleaned. Small chips to the enamelled dial. Cracks in the paint and a piece on the back of the canvas, wear and rubbing).
