The different depictions of watches and clocks in art help us learn about how time was perceived in the past while helping to advance the art of horology today.”

“Thanks to today’s technology, I am happy to share my archives of over 2,000 examples of timepieces displayed in artworks through a continuous slideshow exhibition. “Curating these artworks for my personal collection, and now for the public to view, has been a two-decades-long passion project for me,” said Frishman, who has been a clock restorer and writer-lecturer on horology for more than 30 years. Vintage photographs include two rare mid-19th century daguerreotypes, cabinet cards, cartes de visites, glass lantern slides, and several examples of Mathew Brady Civil-War-era portraits, whose subjects share the scene with his studio’s “Reaper” figural mantel clock. This is and educational game that simulates the process of making a wrist watch and teaches facts about the history of.

Iconic artists represented in the exhibit’s prints include Salvador Dali, Jan Steen, Andrew Wyeth, Winslow Homer, and Giovanni Piranesi. Nearly all the artworks are on loan from HSNY Exhibit Curator Bob Frishman, who created HSNY’s inaugural loan exhibit in early 2020 and now returns with a fresh theme accompanied by a 16-page illustrated catalog.Īmong the original artworks are a circa 1830 folk-art portrait of a mother and child holding a pocket watch the preparatory watercolor by Anatol Kovarsky for a 1961 New Yorker cover showing a watchmaker in his shop and a portrait miniature on ivory, circa 1840, in which a young woman’s watch and chain are visible.
