Al Burk Harlequin Duck Drake

Al Burk (1935-2014) Skysville, MD 13.5" wide | 19" tall | Harlequin is 12.75" long

Exceptionally well carved bird and constructed scene. Delicate feathering covers the bird with the legs and feet being textured as well. The delicately carved wing tips are raised and cross above the thin and equally delicate tail feathers. Mounted on a swivelling base, the glassy pool at the base reflects an authentic wetland setting, made from resin, enhanced by carefully sculpted aquatic plants, formed metal wire and sheet. Condition: Excellent and original with a couple tiny spots of light discoloration on the back Provenance: Private collection New Jersey acquired directly from the artist
