Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Churches Island, North Carolina, circa 1930, carved and painted wood, published on page 163 of Gunnin' Birds by Kroghie Andresen.

Length 16.5 in.

Redheads by Ned Burgess are much more rare than his canvasbacks. They are also smaller and have an attractive flow about them. This example is crisp and unrigged. It is pure sculpture with a nice dry surface.
Exhibited at Duke University 2023.

Original and unrigged.
