Mantel Clock

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

The image displays a large wooden clock with a clock face at the top, featuring black Roman numerals and hands. Beneath the clock face, there are two rectangular sections showcasing painted scenic art: one section depicts a monochrome building and trees, while the other shows a colorful outdoor scene with trees and a horse-drawn carriage. The wooden frame incorporates rich brown tones, with varying shades of green in the trees and hints of yellow and orange in the lower panel scene. The clock face is positioned centrally at the top of the frame, with the painted scenes occupying the middle and bottom portions.
