This impressive longcase clock, also known as a grandfather clock, was crafted around 1780 by the Dutch clockmaker Jan Marc Juntès. The clock features a richly ornamented case with intricate carvings, and the face showcases Roman numerals and a striking design. The presence of angels and a celestial globe atop the clock suggests a connection to the heavens, reflecting the importance of time and the divine in 18th century society. The clock's imposing size and elaborate details mark it as a testament to the craftsmanship and artistry of its time.
