Shelf Clock

Francis Law Durand

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a vintage wooden clock. A round clock face with black numerals is at the top, encased in a rectangular frame with columns. Below the clock face is an ornate carved section, followed by a panel with an oval embellishment holding a floral pattern. The color palette includes rich browns for the wooden structure and black details on the clock face, complemented by subtle colors on the floral design. The clock is centered in the image, with detailed carvings drawing attention to the center and top sections.
