Klok met putti 1719 - 1775

This anonymous, 18th-century design for a clock, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the intricate details of the Rococo style. The elaborate clock face is surrounded by ornate scrollwork and topped by a putti, a cherubic figure, adding a sense of whimsy to the piece. This exquisite design, which likely served as a model for clockmakers, reflects the Rococo era's fascination with asymmetrical curves and naturalistic motifs, capturing the essence of elegance and grandeur that was prevalent in the period.
