Teal is a 1853 by Félix Bracquemond, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This etching shows ducks in a marshy pond surrounded by tall reeds. Some ducks are swimming, while others fly overhead. The artist used fine lines to create texture in the water and grass. The ducks look very real, with careful attention to their feathers and movement. This style matches the early work of artists who focused on everyday nature scenes. Look up Félix Bracquemond to see more of his detailed animal drawings.
Félix Henri Bracquemond (French pronunciation: ; 22 May 1833 – 29 October 1914) was a French painter, etcher, and printmaker.
