Framed Print of Galileos pendulum clock (engraving, 19th C)
Galileos pendulum clock. Engraving of the first pendulum clock, designed by Galileo (1564-1642). This engraving appeared in Sir Robert Balls Great Astronomers of 1895, and was based on a sketch by Galileos son. The clock used a simple escapement mechanism, but had nothing to keep the pendulum swinging. It is thought that Galileo was inspired in earlier life by the swinging motions of chandeliers. The clock was constructed after Galileos death by his son, and was much improved by the later work of Huygens (1629- 95).
