Based on the description, the most appropriate response would be:

The image represents art that was created for both aesthetic and utilitarian purposes.

This is because a wall clock not only serves a practical function (telling time) but is also often designed to be visually appealing and enhance the environment in which it is placed. This aligns with Boulle's work, known for combining functionality with artistic elegance.
