More about this artwork

“Dem Ufer zu” (Toward the Shore) is an exquisite oil painting crafted by the distinguished German artist Alexander Koester in 1900. Known for his masterful depictions of ducks, Koester brings to life a serene yet lively scene, capturing the natural elegance and dynamics of these charming creatures.In this painting, Koester portrays a group of ducks moving leisurely in a shimmering pond. The composition focuses on the gentle water ripples and the varying shades and textures of the ducks’ feathers. Each duck is painted with remarkable detail and individuality, showcasing Koester's skill in using light and color to render the reflections on the water and the softness of the feathers.The backdrop of subdued browns and dark tones contrasts sharply with the bright whites and deep blacks of the ducks, drawing the viewer’s attention directly to the flurry of activity within the flock. The sunlight, skillfully depicted by Koester, seems to dance on the water’s surface and on the bodies of the ducks, creating a vibrant interplay of light and shadow.
