| The whimsical mural features a life-sized Glockenspiel, with each detail mirroring the clocks found in major European cities, including astrological signs and Roman numerals on the clock face, as well as open-faced gears. This particular incarnation was spotted in a Bavarian butcher shop, but it's sure to hit large chain American grocery stores faster than you can say glockenspiel. This lack of understanding was evident as I stumbled through the glockenspiel part repeatedly in one particular section. |
