More about this artwork

Alexander Koester’s painting "Enten, Reichenau" wonderfully captures the tranquil essence of a group of ducks gliding over a gently rippling pond. Painted between 1909 and 1913, this artwork represents the artist’s keen observation and affection towards depicting ducks, for which he is prominently known. In this serene setting, Koester skillfully uses light to articulate the purity and calmness of the ducks as they move through the clear blue waters, highlighted with reflections and shaded areas that intensify the overall atmospheric effect.The composition focuses on multiple groups of ducks, each rendered with meticulous detail that emphasizes the softness of their feathers and the graceful curve of their necks. The foreground group features a particularly engaging scene of two ducks interacting, which adds a lively and intimate touch to the scene. The backdrop of lush green foliage and the hints of a distant township under a dynamic, cloud-filled sky contribute to the depth and interest of the painting.Koester's masterful use of color and texture brings this idyllic scene to life, allowing viewers to nearly hear the comforting sounds of water disturbed by the gentle paddling of the ducks.
