EDITORS COMMENTS
. This striking print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of Harriette Gale's "Decoy Duck" a captivating artifact from mid-20th century America. Created between the 1930s and 1940s, this wooden decoy exemplifies both the artistic flair and functional design that defined this era. Gale's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paper. The vibrant colors bring life to the duck's plumage, while the subtle shading adds depth and dimension to its form. This fusion of color and texture captures not only the beauty but also the essence of these remarkable waterfowl. As we gaze upon this art piece, we are transported back in time to an era when hunting was deeply ingrained in American culture. Decoys like these were essential tools for luring waterfowl during hunts, reflecting a connection between man and nature that has long shaped our country's heritage.

It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects can be transformed into works of art through careful observation, skilled execution, and an appreciation for our natural surroundings.
