The clock in Villa Borghese is placed on an islet in the center of a small lake, it rests on a cast iron base placed on top of the stones. The height of the structure is approximately four meters and on each side of the structure there are glasses above which glass quadrants are arranged, positioned in the upper portion. The latter show the Roman numerals and brass hands. The structure reproduces the trunks of trees, fitting perfectly into the surrounding natural environment.
