'Ducks on the Delta - Pintail' Framed Art Print by James Russell Nelson
This item is a professionally framed and double-matted monochromatic print titled 'Ducks on the Delta - Pintail' by artist James Russell Nelson. The artwork features a detailed pencil sketch or lithograph style depiction of a northern pintail duck in a marshy landscape with reeds in the foreground and mountains in the distance. The print includes a secondary smaller sketch of a duck's head in the bottom right corner. Below the primary image, text indicates it was produced for the Stockton Chapter of the 1990 Ducks Unlimited Sponsor Event. The piece is signed by the artist in the lower right area of the print. It is housed in an ornate black frame with gold beaded-edge detailing and a complex triple-matting arrangement in shades of grey and charcoal with gold fillets. The overall condition appears excellent with no visible foxing, water damage, or fading to the artwork, though there is a minor visible scratch or hair on the glass surface near the top center. The high-quality matting and use of a specific commemorative event label suggest it was part of a limited edition or special presentation series from the early 1990s, characteristic of wildlife conservation fundraising art.
