The present painting is a surrealist masterpiece that depicts an imposing, oversized clock in the shape of a human eye as its central element. The clock appears to be part of an ageing structure reminiscent of abandoned architecture, its orange-rusty hues hinting at decay and the transience of time. Stairs lead the viewer up to a mysterious door that seems to lead deep into the unknown. The combination of organic and mechanical elements, in particular the connection between the eye and the clock, symbolises the eternal surveillance of time itself.
The sky is surrounded by threatening clouds, creating a gloomy mood, while bare trees in the foreground reinforce the impression of lifelessness and decay. This scenery points to an end, to a point in time where everything stands still and time itself becomes an observing entity.
The use of delicate blue and earth tones harmonises with the menacing clouds and the archaic eye, whose intense colours form the heart of the painting. In this work, time is depicted not only as a measuring instrument, but as a living force that observes, controls and at the same time accompanies decay.
