This magnificent three-piece mantel clock garniture exemplifies the height of French Empire Revival design in the 19th century—where classical grandeur, refined materials, and superb craftsmanship converge to create a work of both artistry and precision. The Clock (Centerpiece) The clock stands as a figural masterpiece rooted in the Empire aesthetic. Its rectilinear case is crafted from deeply polished black Belgian marble (or slate), the dark surface setting a dramatic stage for the richly gilded bronze ornamentation. Above, a patinated bronze figure of a seated muse—likely Clio, the Muse of History, or Urania, the Muse of Astronomy—rests elegantly beside a lyre, symbolizing art, knowledge, and harmony. The frieze features remarkable ormolu embellishments, including medallions depicting the Arethusa head type, inspired by ancient Greek coinage from Syracuse, Sicily (circa 400 BC). The base is finished with bold scrolled tiger feet...
