The art of tracking time has been evidenced for over 300 years in
the Black Forest area of Germany. Cuckoo and singing bird clocks,
early glass bell, trumpeter, Jockele, animation, and picture frame
clocks all have in the Black Forest area by skilled clockmakers who
have transformed the function of time into a true form of art
through their clocks. Rick Ortenburger's important new study traces
the development of this fascinating Black Forest clock industry
between about 1700 and 1930. He provides useful information that
will meet the collectors' need and increase the appreciation of the
beautiful craft these clocks represent. Photographs in color and
black and white of 600 different examples make the industry's
evolution from early cottage farm houses to the later development
of factories come to life.
