Large chased and patinated bronze terminal clock featuring Homer, based on the painting by François GERARD, reproduced in engraving by Raphael MASSARD.
Homer accompanied by his guide, lyre at his back, in gilded bronze applique is at the center of the clock.

The ring-shaped dial features a patina similar to that of the clock, with a central ormolu decoration of rosettes, palmettes and accacia branches.
