Eros Pruning His Bow In The Hercules Mass

Rare Empire period pendulum representing Eros cutting his bow in the club of Hercules, trophies of the sword and helmet stolen from Mars. Victory of Love over the war, theme inspired by the sculptor Bouchardon in 1750, sculpture commissioned for Versailles .... The pendulum is in gilded bronze with mercury, sublime gilding of matt and shiny origin, the plates of real mirrors. Eros, divinity of Love, is majestic, a lot of sensitivity in his face, magnificent friezes where we find cupid in his chariot pulled by two lions and cupid musicians, antique scenes and children's games, very pretty hearts in flower crowns crossed by arrows. Large wire movement revised by watchmaker with its pendulum and keys. Large enamel dial signed by the Watchmaker Thonissen in Paris (1806 - 1820) Pendulum of great beauty, a true historical picture.
