Clock

Paul Ward

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts an antique mantel clock with a rich wooden frame and intricate decorative columns on either side. The clock face features Roman numerals and floral patterns in red and green tones. Below the clock face is an illustrative panel of George Washington in a blue military coat standing next to a white horse, with a landscape in the background. The wooden frame is deep reddish-brown with gold and black detailing on the columns. The clock face and illustration panel are positioned centrally within the frame, creating a balanced and symmetrical appearance.
