Gothic Revival: An “Alternative” Trend for Victorian Americans

This mass-produced “cottage” clock, made by Brewster & Ingraham of Bristol, Connecticut between 1844 and 1852, merely hints at the Gothic style with its pointed top and simple spires. Thousands of clocks like this one found a place in American homes during the mid-19th century. THF.109862
