Benson Bond Moore (1882-1974)
studies of ducks, undated
Painter and printmaker Benson Bond Moore specialized in landscapes and animals. A native and resident of Washington DC, he often sketched at the National Zoo. Ducks were a favorite subject. Here he makes a graphic list of ducks in various poses, numbered one to twenty-six, perhaps serving as a handy how-to-draw-a-duck reference for his paintings and prints. |
