Table clock: extremely rare Renaissance figure clock ‘Mary with the

Ca. 32 cm high, brass, fire-gilt, glazed wooden base, base bell, early verge movement with self-striking mechanism on the bell, monogram ANR (Nikolaus Rugendas of Augsburg), time displayed via a rotating crown, modernised from a gut string to a chain drive, movement intact. Please request a condition report for technical details. Nikolaus Rugendas was born in 1582 in Melsungen (Hesse). He moved to Augsburg in 1608 and was appointed a master there in 1610. He was a recognised master watchmaker and was also fortunate enough to marry into wealth when he wed Sarah Schmidt in 1608. In 1638/1639, he was appointed and sworn in as a master watchmaker. This clock, known as the ‘Strahlenkranzmadonna’, was on loan as part of two exhibitions in Munich and Washington in 1980–81: in 1980 at the Bavarian National Museum in the exhibition ‘Die Welt als Uhr’ (‘The World as a Clock’) and at the National Museum of American History and Technology (Smithsonian Institution) in the exhibition ‘The Clockwork Universe’. Both museums enjoyed great success with these exhibitions; in Munich alone, there were more than 82,000 visitors. A catalogue of the same name, edited by Klaus Maurice and Otto Mayr, was published to accompany the exhibition; in it, the ‘Madonna statuette’ is illustrated and described as an exhibit on pages 238 and 239.
