ABOUT PRODUCTID 15341
This detective duck figurine, crafted in Germany in the 1960s, is a hand-painted papier-mâché object defined by its bold forest green. Its long, stylized trench coat features black-painted buttons, a belt, and outlined pockets with a distinctive glossy finish. A black fedora hat with a matching green ribbon, a cream-white face with an exaggerated black eye, and the whimsical red dot at the tip of the beak all reflect a nod to mid-century surrealism. Beneath the coat, the duck dons a visible white shirt and green tie, while the beak and feet are rendered in warm, shaded mustard yellow. The hand-molded surface reveals the hallmarks of traditional papier-mâché: slightly irregular relief, visible brushstrokes, and subtle creasing. Oversized proportions—elongated collar, angular beak, and voluminous coat—point to a blend of surrealist and mid-century animated influences. The piece has been preserved in very good condition, showing no damages or chips and only faint traces of age in the paintwork. The sculpture carries the playful spirit of the 1960s
