EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning mantle clock of black composition stone, adorned with intricate incised decoration. Standing proudly on its legs, this exquisite timepiece features finials and fittings in gilt brass, adding a touch of opulence to its already elegant design. Created by Jausions of Pau, France between 1876 and 1878, this masterpiece measures 32.4x21x13.3 cm. With its rich history and provenance, it is fascinating to note that this extraordinary clock once belonged to Mary Todd Lincoln, the esteemed First Lady of the United States during Abraham Lincoln's presidency. Acquired almost certainly between 1876 and 1878 by Mary herself, this remarkable piece holds great significance as part of her personal collection. The expertly captured photograph allows us to appreciate every detail of this magnificent timepiece from the comfort of our own homes. The contrast between the black composition stone and the gilded brass accents creates an eye-catching visual harmony that exudes sophistication. As we delve into the world of French craftsmanship from the 19th century through this image, we are reminded not only of Mary Todd Lincoln's refined taste but also how art transcends borders and connects people across time and space. This print serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical legacy – a true treasure for any admirer or collector alike.
