Bronze Lighthouse Clock, Italy, Late 19th–early 20th Century
Artist: Janetti Padre E Figli
A patinated bronze clock depicting a lighthouse with architectural details: the body is adorned with windows and openings that mimic the masonry of a real lighthouse, while the upper section reproduces the lantern with its openwork gallery. The base is made of black marble.
The upper part of the lighthouse featured a barometer, a thermometer (in degrees Celsius and Fahrenheit), and a clock face, and it rotated thanks to a complex mechanism.
Signed Janetti Padre e Figli, Torino, Roma, Firenze: Janetti Padre e Figli was one of the most prestigious Italian retailers of luxury goods, decorative arts and antiques during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
