A roan duck stands on one leg in a marsh. Its feathers look soft and real. The water around it is calm and clear. This was painted in the 1790s by John Abbot. He lived in America but studied birds in England. He used watercolor and pencil together. Check out more of his work at the National Gallery of Art, Washington.
