“Reclining Woman and Two Cherubs”
The clock features a young woman dressed in ancient-style garb, reclining as she removes her wedding ring and gazes at it thoughtfully. She is resting her elbow on a flower-covered mound that encloses the movement. It surrounds a round, white-enameled dial displaying the hours in Roman numerals and the minutes in Arabic numerals, signed “Raingo Frères / à Paris.” The oblong base is richly decorated with foliage scrolls and flowers, a frieze of gadroons, and ribboned reeds.
Silk-thread suspension and chime at the hours and half-hours.
In perfect working order
The pair of cherubs symbolize love. One, with his index finger raised and wielding a club, urges the young woman to be cautious; while the other, holding a pair of scissors, resignedly prepares to cut off one of his own wings... They rest on square bases decorated in a style similar to that of the clock.
