Condition Report: Movement is in relatively clean working condition with no visible evidence of alteration or noticeable replacements. The calendar hand however does not seem to advance when the hands are moved by hand past midnight and the mechanism would probably benefit from a gentle clean/service. The dial has filled chips near two o'clock as well as numerous hairlines, chipping to the left hand winding holes and the edge in at least three places; the minute hand has also been repaired at the centre. The case is generally in very good original condition with faults essentially limited to minor edge wear/some chipping to the marble, some overall discolouration, age-related wear and oxidation to the mounts.Clock has a pendulum and a winding key. Condition Report Disclaimer

* Robinson (Robert, active 1674-1706). Classical Capriccio, mezzotint on laid paper, showing an artistdepicting an artist sketching classical ruins, including an obelisk and a mausoleum with an urn, a very good, rich impression, trimmed to plate mark, 197 x 156 mm (7 3/4 x 6 1/8 ins), framed and glazed (34 x 28.5 cm)QTY: (1)NOTE:Provenance: Purchased at Colnaghi Exhibition in 1972, at the Original Printmaking in Britain exhibition, 1600-1900, no. 27.

Follower of François Boucher,  French 1703-1770- Putti surrounded by garlands, with an obelisk behind; black chalk heightened with white and sanguine chalk on blue paper, bears faint signature 'F. Boucher' (to the scroll, lower left), bears initials 'F.B' (lower right), bears collector's stamp (lower left), 29 x 24.6 cm. Note:  The present work, featuring plump putti in an imagined classical setting, is very much inspired by Boucher's compositions, recalling, for example, his 'La Cible d'Amour' of 1758, in the collection of the Louvre [INV 2715]. In particular, the central putto's position, with his face downturned and his arms outstretched, holding aloft a garland of flowers, is strikingly similar to that in the present drawing.
