Condition: artist's brush is absent, see his empty right hand, however the rest of the sculpture is complete and with fine detail. There is loss of gilding, but still reasonably bright. The well made silk-thread movement is signed in prominent block letters on the rear plate, and the name repeated on the porcelain dial. Dial has several cracks. Hands are original. Pendulum is later. Height 18.5 inches [47cm]
