The design juxtaposes two nearly identical works: the celebrated 18th-century French Friendship Clock (1785) alongside its 19th-century counterpart, revealing the challenge of distinguishing authentic masterpieces from later reproductions. A fascinating piece of museum ephemera that highlights the history of forgery, authenticity, and connoisseurship in the art world.
