Tempus Fugit for Sin



Recycled Clock using Hieronymus Bosch. Tabletop of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Four Last Things.
1485. Oil on panel. Museo del Prado, Madrid, Spain.
Tempus Fugit = Time flies.
Bought the clock for $1 at Urban Ore. Removed the plate with the numbers. Painted the frame in gold. Pasted a reproduction of Bosh's work (which I saw recently at Prado). Painted the Roman numbers. It gives me the time in my bedroom. It's always time to sin!!
