Thanks to all who replied. Most replies came to my own mailbox and not to

What I was looking for was a sort of misty painting of a building with a
non-descript sundial on the wall.
 
On other Dali sundials:
 
Joël Robic (and others):
For sundials in Paris you can see Andree Gotteland site (and book):

Willy LEENDERS:
The Dali sundial in Paris is not a painting.
A painting is the Salvador Dali "self portrait sundial". You find a picture
at http://www.elainefineart.com/dali/self_portrait_sundial.htm
 
As for the painting I was seeking, I believe Richard Langley might have
found it and may be forwarding a link to the list.
 
Dave bell sent this interesting link.

Why, an hour glass, of course!

Some time ago someone posted a link to a painting by Salvador Dali that
included a sundial.
 
Could someone point me to it again?
 
== Try this: ==
 
Since it has none, I suppose a sundial could be considered the timepiece
with the least moving parts.
 
What timepiece has the most moving parts?
