- Lot Description
Ivan Kozlov (B. 1937) "1990 USSR Duck Conservation Stamp - Mallard" Signed lower right. Watercolor.
This painting was originally published on a First Day Cover for a Russia Duck stamp issued July 1, 1990. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation.
Dabbling ducks of all species -- mallards, gadwalls, shovelers, pintails, teals -- are favorite game birds and so many have disappeared because of habitat loss and drought that in recent years several countries, including the Soviet Union and the United States, have taken measures for their preservation. Among the dabbling ducks, the Mallard is the Northern Hemisphere's most abundant duck. Although this familiar and adaptable waterfowl has been domesticated for centuries and is the bird from which the domestic duck originated and with which it still interbreeds -- the Mallard is also commonly known as the Wild Duck. This colorful bird is among the most handsome of ducks. In mating plumage the Mallard drake's head and neck are a beautiful glossy green, separated from the rich brown nape and breast by a crisp white band. The wings are brown with a superb violet-blue speculum framed in black and white. The rest of the body is greyish white and the beak, bright yellow. In contrast, the hen is quite drab, its brown body with black markings possessing the camouflaging qualities common to many female ducks, but it does possess the colorful speculum characteristic of the species. This hardy water bird winters as far north as open water and food will permit, and in favored areas. Mallards are often seen congregating in flocks of many thousands, forming huge living "rafts" afloat on the water's surface.
