403: WILL ANDREWES, BRUCE BOUCHER: The Depiction of Time: Clocks in Early Modern European Culture
The invention of the mechanical clock was a milestone for Western civilization. While primarily used for the organization of urban life, its allegorical significance reflected God’s creation as well as wisdom, virtue, prestige, and prosperity. Andrewes is a museum consultant and frequent guest curator for horological exhibits. Boucher is curator of European decorative art and sculpture at the Art Institute of Chicago.
