Here are the types of picture wall clocks.

• By size: large, medium, small. A huge clock against the backdrop of a beautiful painting will only look appropriate in a large room and is best suited for living rooms and dining rooms. Medium-sized accessories are in the highest demand and will go well with almost any décor. Little cute watch-pictures fit well into the interior of Khrushchev's kitchens and bedrooms, giving a special charm.

• By design: modular and monolithic. Now it is very fashionable to use compound paintings in the interior, for example, triptychs. So the clock against the background of paintings can be modular, which especially attracts attention. Even a simple interior in a modern style will be transformed if it has a bright accent in the form of such an accessory. The simpler design is monolithic, but this does not mean that it is worse. Lovers of classics and purity of lines will like this type of wall clock-paintings more.

• By shape: round, rectangular, triangular, etc. Wall clock-picture can be either standard geometric shapes or abstract lines. It will depend only on the flight of the designer's imagination and the desire of the buyer.

• By material: glass, quartz, canvas, metal, plastic, wood. All kinds of materials are not currently on the market. Therefore, a wall clock-picture can be made not only on canvas, as you might think, but also on any other materials. Putting an image on anything now is not a problem.

• Background: abstract painting, photography, classical art. The choice of background image depends only on your taste preferences. You can buy a watch in the form of a famous canvas of your favorite artist, order your photo with loved ones for the background, and also choose an abstract image, which will be the most neutral option.

• With or without dial. You can find on sale options with hour divisions or numbers, or that picture against the background of which only the hands will be visible. It all depends on whether you really look at them for time. The numbers and divisions are more descriptive.

Such an original accessory as a picture wall clock must be chosen wisely. Any specimen that comes across may not fit into the interior or not fit for other reasons. Consider the main criteria for choosing a wall clock picture.

• Choice of size. First of all, you need to decide on the size. You need to think about what area of ​​the wall can be covered with such a clock, and how it will look. An accessory that is too large or, conversely, too small, will ruin the overall impression of the room.

• Selection for the general style of the interior. For example, the classic style obliges the owner to select the appropriate accessories. For this interior, a watch will fit against the background of reproductions of famous masters of the classics, and which one exactly is a matter of taste.The modern interior is beautifully emphasized by the clock on an abstract background or on the image of the creation of the impressionists. For the kitchen, you can even choose a photograph or a reproduction of a painted still life.

• Purpose of the watch. If the clock is really supposed to check the time, it is better to choose copies with a clear image of numbers and large hands. When an item is bought solely to decorate a wall, you can neglect the massive elements and buy a watch with invisible hands and no numbers.

• The choice of material. A clock-picture on canvas will hardly be appropriate to place in the kitchen, and in a nursery, an accessory made of glass or quartz will be simply dangerous due to the curiosity and ingenuity of children. When choosing, consider the relevance of a particular material in a particular room.

• The complexity and pretentiousness of the design and other accents of the interior. If the room already has bright accents, then the unusual large clock-picture will compete with it. Bright wallpaper in a large drawing is not the best background for them, since the accessory should stand out against a solid background, and not argue with it.

Consider all these nuances when choosing a picture clock for interior decoration. If you take into account the peculiarities of your room and the future accessory, and also choose a good combination of them, then you will successfully beat the space and please yourself and your loved ones with a successful new thing.
