Clock 1815 - 1820

This ornate, gilt-bronze clock, created by French artist Dubuc, is a testament to the Neoclassical style popular during the early 19th century. It features a standing figure of George Washington, holding a scroll and accompanied by an eagle perched on a globe. The clock face is surrounded by decorative motifs, including a banner that reads "WASHINGTON THE PATRIOT." This clock is a striking example of American Neoclassical art, combining political symbolism with intricate craftsmanship.
