A fine original Mid-century lithograph study of the handsome male Shoveller Duck or Spatula Clypeata from the Sixties. Here he is right at home in his wetland habitat. Shoveller Duck is a lovely original full-color natural history illustration from a volume of European waterfowl from the early Sixties with colors still lively and bright 50-plus years later. He measures 10" x 8" overall; printed on heavy card-stock paper with premium quality inks. it's printed on the reverse side too, but don't worry... nothing shows through. Matted, framed, and displayed as a gallery grouping, these lovely natural history studies are simply spectacular. (Please note that the framed examples in the last photos are just to show how this might look when it's matted and framed. Your print will come to you unmatted and unframed.)
