EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Three Decoy Ducks, c. 1937" by Harriette Gale showcases the artist's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of American wildlife and culture during the 1930s. The image portrays three beautifully crafted wooden decoy ducks, meticulously designed to attract real waterfowl for hunting purposes. Gale's artistic prowess is evident in her use of watercolor graphite and colored pencil on paperboard, which brings these decoys to life with vibrant colors and intricate details. Each duck exudes a sense of realism that reflects the craftsmanship and ingenuity behind their creation. The photograph not only serves as a visual delight but also acts as an artifact representing America's rich heritage art. It provides a glimpse into the country's deep-rooted connection with nature, hunting traditions, and rural lifestyle during this era. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this artwork holds historical significance as part of the Index of American Design collection. It symbolizes both artistic expression and cultural preservation, reminding us of our nation's diverse artistic legacy. As we admire Gale's masterpiece today, it prompts us to appreciate the skillful blending of artistry and functionality found within everyday objects like these decoy ducks. This print invites viewers to immerse themselves in a bygone era while celebrating America’s natural beauty through Harriette Gale’s remarkable lens.
