Time.

Back then, cities were not synchonized, ie. the time between cities could vary several minutes since they often followed the ‘sun time.’ With the advent of the train that could no longer be the case and regions and countries introduced a universal time.

Clocks became very important and if you wanted to know the exact time, you went to the train station.

G.
Forever is Composed of Nows.
Acrylic on paper.

The title of an Emily Dickinson poem about forever and now inspired this painting about time, represented by clocks, a clock headed man, on a stairs, beside a grandfather clock, moving towards a door.

The clock above the main entrance of Charing Cross Mansions in Glasgow sculpted by W.B. Rhind. On either side of the clock are figures representing Spring (left) and Autumn (right), while above it are figures of Commerce and Industry. The clock face itself is surrounded by Zodiac signs, and below it the bearded face of Father Time emerges from the stone work. All in all, a rather beautiful clock filled with a lot of symbolism.
