Description / Descriptions :
This may be a portrait of George Matthews (flourishing ca. 1816-1866) of the Montreal firm Matthews Lithography, who was a partner of George Burland. A lithographer by this name, possibly the sitter in this portrait, was active at Cavagnol (near Hudson) from 1857-1858. The artist was a successful American miniaturist who worked in Connecticut and New Orleans, but largely in New York; he exhibited his work from 1829 to 1860. Although not characteristic of his later, large rectangular works, this portrait of the youthful sitter may be an example of an earlier style. Encasing a lock of the sitter's hair was a practice characteristic to miniature production that added to the intimate and personal quality of the keepsake. /
Il s'agit peut-être d'un portrait de George Matthews (période florissante de 1816 à 1866 environ) de la firme montréalaise Matthews Lithography, partenaire de George Burland. Un lithographe de ce nom, peut-être le sujet de ce portrait, exerça sa profession à Cavagnol (près d'Hudson) à partir de 1857-1858. L'artiste était un miniaturiste américain prospère qui travailla au Connecticut et à la Nouvelle-Orléans, mais surtout à New York; il exposa son oeuvre de 1829 à 1860. Même s'il n'est pas caractéristique de ses tableaux ultérieurs, rectangulaires et plus grands, ce portrait du jeune homme illustre peut-être un style antérieur. L'enchâssement d'une tresse de cheveux du sujet était une pratique caractéristique de la production de miniatures. Il rendait l'article souvenir encore plus intime et personnel.

Miniature Novelty clock. Bought in perth
Only Time will tell and every clock tells a story....
The problem with clock is, once you got two they start to multiply..
It all started when I acquired my first clock a 1960's jap 7-day wall clock from a colleague of mine by the name of Wong Mun Lai, a clock collector

It was a non-working clock which I wanted to hang up for display. After a while, I felt something amiss. A clock is not a clock if it does'nt work! So I took it apart and do some fixing, to my surprise I managed to get it ticking again ! I was totally fascinated From there I got my second, third and so on....
My favourite has to be the 400 day clock
Amazing time piece and fun to repair Next in line is those of the electromechanical design type
I love the working principles
At the time of writing, my collection is still growing....but has grind to a halt as my interest is now focus on nature photography
