Alarm Clock (Timepiece)

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

An image of a wooden mantel clock with an octagonal face is shown. The clock features a white dial with black Roman numerals and intricate golden detailing at its center. Below the clock face is a rectangular panel adorned with colorful floral and fruit motifs against a dark blue background. The color palette consists of warm wood tones for the clock casing, contrasted by the white clock face and the vibrant colors of the decorative panel. The clock is centered in the image, set against a plain background.
