Thirty Hour Clock

Vincent P. Rosel and Gordon Saltar

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a clock with a scenic painting in place of the pendulum. The view is a front-facing perspective centered on the clock. The clock has a polished wooden frame in warm brown tones. At the top is the horizon, aligning with a small landscape painting below. The painting includes a riverbank, trees, buildings, and a tall spire. The colors are soft and natural, with greens, blues, and muted shades. The brushstrokes are fine and detailed. The overall color palette is earthy, with emphasis on browns and pastel shades.
