Jean-André Lepaute Clocks

Jean-André Lepaute, together with his younger brother Jean-Baptiste Lepaute, was a founder of an outstanding French clockmaker dynasty of their day, holding the brevet horlogers du Roi. His brother assumed his workshop in 1774 when Jean-André retired; he died after a long illness in Paris. Lepaute was an innovator, to whom numerous improvements in horology are due, especially his pin-wheel escapement. He constructed refinements to the clockwork in which the gears are all in the horizontal plane, making possible the revolving dials of clocks in urns or globes characteristic of the classicizing Louis XVI style.
