A bronze group with a brown patina representing Venus and Adonis standing on top of a black marble clock with a frieze of antique chaseresses in gilt bronze. Dial with Roman numerals for the hours and gilt bronze frame. Original movement cleaned, revised and in working condition. French school of the 19th century. Our bronze can be compared stylistically with the works executed by Jean-Baptiste dit Auguste Clésinger (1814-1883), in the choice of the subject, a mythological theme of which he became a specialist, in the treatment of the faces and in the attitude of the two protagonists represented here. The artist chose to represent the most famous scene of the story of Adonis in which Venus tries to prevent him from going hunting. Napoleon III period, Circa: 1870 Dim: W:25cm, D:54cm, H:78cm.
