Description
Large brass lenticle for the Friesian clock; The urn with eternal flame is symbolic for time, the rooster is symbol for the blessings of the early morning, the dove is symbol for peace and innocence, sun and moon represents the passing days. The eagle unveils by lifting the curtain the transitoriness of time. Approx 7 1/4” or 18,5 cm tall and 4 13/16” or 12,2 cm wide. A small poem was said with this ornament;
The dove and rooster-
the sun and moon-
the eagle above-
All must praise the Lord.
