Sundial House Bellet "Ora ne te fallat hora"

This Louis XV style or Regency style dial, would have been painted by Hippolyte Laurençon, a local painter who lived from 1754 to 1827 in Plampinet.
Declining from the afternoon, engraved and painted on plaster with lines encircled in the band, this dial is ornamented with scrolls in the shape of shells and the hours painted whimsically. Painted in the Louis XV style, the scrolls in shell forms refer to the Rocaille style (1710.1750): shapes and derivatives of shell elements, shells, concretions, including a stylized treatment of the shell spiral with undulations and windings.
The motto: "Hora ne te fallat hora" represents a play on words between ora (verb orare pray) and hora (time) and means "Pray that last hour does not take you".
It was then restored in 1869 by the Club du Vieux Manoir.
