Informazioni su questo ebook
Among the finest examples of
European craftsmanship are the clocks produced for the luxury trade in the eighteenth
century. The J. Paul Getty Museum is fortunate to have in its decorative arts
collection twenty clocks dating from around 1680 to 1798: eighteen produced in
France and two in Germany. They demonstrate the extraordinary workmanship that
went into both the design and execution of the cases and the intricate movements
by which the clocks operated.
In this handsome volume, each
clock is pictured and discussed in detail, and each movement diagrammed and
described. In addition, biographies of the clockmakers and enamelers are
included, as are indexes of the names of the makers, previous owners, and
locations.
