拍品專文

The original design for this mantel clock is by Etienne Martincourt (maître 1762). At least four 18th century examples are documented, one of which was supplied circa 1773-7 to Louis XVI for the Salon de Conseil at the Tuileries Palace, and is presently in the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, Malibu (see G. Wilson et al, European Clocks in the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, 1996, no. XVI, pp. 114-123).
