About the Item
Pair of Mallard Duck and Canvasback Duck Lithographs, After John James Audubon, 20th Century
This exquisite pair of 20th-century hand-colored lithographs features the Mallard Duck and Canvasback Duck, beautifully reproducing the celebrated ornithological illustrations of John James Audubon from The Birds of America. Created after the R. Havell 1836 edition, these prints showcase Audubon's iconic style, blending scientific precision with artistic mastery. Rendered in vibrant hand-colored detail, each lithograph captures the grace, movement, and lifelike realism that define Audubon’s legacy.
The Mallard Duck print presents a dynamic scene of a drake, hen, and feeding duck nestled among lush grasses and wildflowers. Their iridescent plumage and natural behaviors are meticulously illustrated, bringing the composition vividly to life. In contrast, the Canvasback Duck print offers a serene waterside setting, depicting three ducks in various postures—one feeding, another perched on a rock, and a third gliding across the water—highlighting the quiet elegance of this sought-after species.
Both lithographs bear the inscription "Drawn from Nature by J.J. Audubon, F.R.S. F.L.S.," affirming their connection to Audubon’s original field studies and dedication to wildlife documentation. The pieces are professionally framed in gold-tone frames with muted green matting, enhancing their vintage charm and complementing the artwork’s earthy tones.

Antique American Hunting Canvasback Decoy Signed C.A. Locart & J.G.
Hand-Carved Wood, Early 20th Century, 18" W x 6.5" D x 7" H
This antique American canvasback duck decoy is a remarkable example of early 20th-century hunting craftsmanship, signed by C.A. Locart and J.G. Hand-carved from solid wood, this decoy measures 18 inches wide, 6.5 inches deep, and 7 inches high, making it an impressive piece for both display and collection.
Canvasback ducks are the largest species of diving duck in North America. Male Canvasbacks are recognizable by their white bodies and maroon heads, while females are more gray with sandy-brown heads. These ducks are seldom found on dry land, preferring to sleep and nest on the water.
This decoy features a bold, streamlined profile characteristic of canvasback ducks, prized by hunters for their distinctive sloping head and long bill. The deep, rich patina of the wood highlights the natural grain, with subtle carving marks that add texture and character. The orange glass eyes lend a lifelike quality, enhancing its realistic appeal.
On the underside, the decoy bears the impressed signatures of C.A. Locart and J.G., adding to its historical significance and collectible value. The piece shows age-appropriate wear, including minor surface imperfections and a charming patina that reflects its authentic use in waterfowl hunting.

Joseph Gibbs Florida Highwaymen Wetland Heron Painting, Oil on Canvas, C. 1970s
Located in West Palm Beach, FL
Joseph Gibbs Florida Highwaymen Wetland Heron Painting, Oil on Canvas, Circa 1970s
A serene and beautifully executed Florida wetland landscape by Joseph Gibbs, one of the original and most respected members of the Florida Highwaymen. Painted circa the 1970s, this atmospheric composition depicts white herons gliding and wading through still waters beneath moss-draped cypress trees, a subject closely associated with Gibbs’ strongest and most collectible work.
Executed in oil on canvas, the painting demonstrates the hallmarks of the Highwaymen tradition: luminous sky tones, reflective water rendered in layered greens and blues, and expressive foliage achieved through confident, gestural brushwork. The elegant placement of the herons adds movement and contrast, lending the scene a quiet sense of life and balance. Gibbs was particularly admired for his handling of water and wetlands, and this example shows his ability to convey depth, light, and Florida’s subtropical atmosphere with ease.
The canvas measures 20 inches by 24 inches and is presented in a period-appropriate faux bamboo frame, consistent with the frames commonly used when Highwaymen paintings were originally sold roadside and door-to-door. Signed lower left, the work remains in very good vintage condition.
A classic and highly decorative example of an authentic Florida Highwaymen painting...
