A good 19th century Austrian carved, patinated and gilt wood automata clock with blinking eyes

The realistically modelled figure wearing a cap and tunic, cradling in his arms a European style bagpipe, his eyes scanning left to right in tandem with the pendulum, leaning against a rocky outcrop on a plinth base, the 4 inch enamel chapter ring with minute track and Arabic numerals around an engine turned centre with moon hands, the spring driven movement with anchor escapement striking on a gong mounted on a T-bar support to the rear 47cms (18.5ins) high.
