EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent clock created in 1695 by the talented French artisans Andre-Charles Boulle and Balthazar Martinot II. The clock, measuring an impressive 113.7 cm (44 3/4 in. ) overall, is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. The intricate details of this timepiece are truly awe-inspiring. Made from tortoise shell and adorned with exquisite brass inlay, the clock exudes elegance and sophistication. The use of gilt bronze further enhances its opulence, adding a touch of grandeur to its design. Andre-Charles Boulle's exceptional skill as a furniture maker is evident in every aspect of this clock. His meticulous attention to detail can be seen in the precision of the brass inlay work, which beautifully complements the rich tones and textures of the tortoise shell. Collaborating with Balthazar Martinot II, who was renowned for his expertise in creating mechanical movements for clocks, resulted in not only an aesthetically pleasing piece but also one that functions flawlessly. This print allows us to appreciate the timeless beauty and artistry captured within this remarkable creation by two master craftsmen from centuries past. It serves as a reminder that their legacy lives on through their extraordinary works that continue to inspire admiration and fascination today.
