Provenance:From the private collection of a professional sportsman and commentator. Maison Wurtel was founded by Guillaume-Ferdinand Wurtel in around 1837 when he advertised as working from 38-40 Passage Vivienne, Paris. Three years later he was listed in a trade directory as a horological maker and seller offering picture clocks as well as a supplier of concave glasses. In 1841 a magazine, 'La Presse', recommended 'La Maison Wurtel' to their readers informing them that they can buy watches, table clocks, picture clocks, music boxes, alarm clocks and 'objects of fantasy'. In 1856 they exhibited at the 'Exposition of Delepine of Paris' but unfortunately were positioned within the scientific instrument section to the bafflement of visitors. Maison Wurtel were known to have sourced their clock movements form Japy Freres and the musical mechanism within the present lot can be attributed to Auguste L'Epee of Saint-Suzanne, Doubs, France (who worked from 1839 until the end of the century). The Angelus mechanism is a particularly rare feature which traditionally served to accompany the recital of the Angelus prayer in Roman Catholicism. Condition Report: The clock, striking and angelus mechanisms are all in relatively clean original working condition with the various levers and detents present. The musical mechanism is also in relatively clean working condition with no visible losses to the teeth or noticeable corrosion issues. The clock was in use in the vendor's home when consigned however due to the nature of the item some adjustment may be required to ensure all the features operate as an when they should once the picture is hung securely on the wall. The canvas is in good condition with no visible tears or holes of noticeable repairs. The frame is in fine condition with good gilding throughout. The pine back box has some slight wear/bumps (most noticeable to the back corners) as well as other relatively minor age related faults - otherwise is in very good original condition.Clock is complete with pendulum and two winding keys.
