Monumental clock with pipe mechanism, the bronzes of fine quality. The signatory Carcany, on the barometer, cannot be identified in more detail. A barometer with the same signature from around 1730/40 is in the V&A Museum, London (museum number 1121-1882). It is assumed that this signature relates to a restoration of the instrument around 1770.
