Gadwall

Gadwall, a painting by Ferdinand von Wright. 



The artwork depicts a gadwall duck standing on a rock near the water's edge. The duck is rendered in detail, showing its plumage, which is predominantly grey and brown with some darker markings. Its orange legs and feet are clearly visible. The background is simple, with a light wash of blue suggesting water and a pale, off-white background. The style is naturalistic, focusing on accurate representation of the bird. The artwork's dimensions are 0.11 meters wide by 0.09 meters high. The artwork is from the Ateneum collection, but the date is not specified.
