Rechts unten signiert. 54,5 x 82 cm (21,4 x 32,2 in). • Zu diesem seinem Œuvre schließlich übergeordneten Thema der stimmungsvollen Enten-Darstellungen findet der Landschaftsmaler Alexander Koester 1896 während eines Aufenthalts in Klausen im Eisacktal, einem Südtiroler Künstlertreff. • Mit freiem, impressionistisch-bewegtem, breitem und lockerem Farbauftrag bringt Koester den flüchtigen Moment der sich im Wasser tummelnden Tiere, das Licht- und Schattenspiel auf dem Gefieder und die Reflexionen des Sonnenlichtes auf der Wasseroberfläche zur Darstellung. • Seine Werke erfreuen sich bald großer Beliebtheit, finden Eingang in Sammlungen und Museen, sogar Kaiser Wilhelm II. und König Vittorio Emanuele III. von Italien erwerben 1900 und 1907 zwei Enten-Bilder. • 1904 ist der Künstler mit drei Enten-Bildern auf der Weltausstellung in St. Louis, Missouri, vertreten und erhält eine Goldmedaille. • Vergleichbare Arbeiten befinden sich u. a. in den Sammlungen der Neuen Pinakothek, Bayerische Staatsgemäldesammlungen, München, und des Belvedere in Wien.

Signed in the lower right. 54.5 x 82 cm (21.4 x 32.2 in). • Landscape painter Alexander Koester finally discovered the dominant theme of his oeuvre, atmospheric depictions of ducks, during a stay in Klausen in the Eisack Valley, a South Tyrolean artists' retreat, in 1896. • With a free, impressionistic, broad, and loose application of the paint, Koester captured the fleeting moment of the animals frolicking in the water, the play of light and shadow on their plumage, and the reflections of the sunlight on the water's surface. • His works soon became popular and entered collections and museums. Emperor Wilhelm II and King Vittorio Emanuele III of Italy acquired two duck paintings (1900 and 1907). • In 1904, the artist was represented with three duck paintings at the World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri, and was awarded a gold medal. • Similar works can be found in, among others, the collections of the Neue Pinakothek, Bavarian State Painting Collections, Munich, and the Belvedere in Vienna.

Two plastic binders containing autograph material by and about John Wayne; several sleeves of photographs and related ephemera; an envelope of press cuttings about the vessel; and a Seth Thomas seven-jeweled eight-day ship's bell clock (with wooden mount and key) reputedly from the Wild Goose. Condition varies, some minor soiling but generally clean. The clock movement is currently running but not guaranteed to be in working order.John Wayne’s yacht Wild Goose was built in 1942—delivered 1943—as a U.S. Navy mine sweeper (USS YMS-328), serving off the coast of Alaska during World War II. The ship was decommissioned in 1946 and sold out of service in 1948, eventually (after passing through several hands as a private yacht) being purchased for $116,000 by John Wayne in 1962. A spacious vessel at 136 feet, it could accommodate over a hundred people in its saloon and had five staterooms, and Wayne had the ship renovated to the highest standards of luxury. It served him as a retreat during the last sixteen years of his life. Moored at Newport Beach, it is now listed on the US National Register of Historic Places, and it still operates for dinner cruises today.The first captain of the vessel under Wayne's ownership was Peter Stein, who developed a close bond with the new owner. Approximately thirty of Captain Stein's letters to his wife Nina from on board the ship are preserved, housed in one binder. These carry a wealth of anecdotes about John Wayne and his guests, and are written from various ports of call including Bermuda, Barcelona, Panama, Gibraltar, Costa Rica, etc. Most are dated in the early 1960s. Stein captained the vessel until 1969, when he suffered a massive heart attack and died. He is buried in the same Newport Beach cemetery as John Wayne, who succumbed to stomach cancer a decade later.The second binder includes two typed letters from John Wayne to Captain Stein (signed as "Duke"); a card from Pilar and John Wayne to Stein; a letter from Mary Batjac of Batjac Productions, Wayne's independent film production company; several visiting cards inscribed "Good Luck. John Wayne" and a signed card by Alan Jay Lerner to Stein; a signed photograph of Wayne, and another with an affixed signature; an extensive selection of images of the Wild Goose and life on the vessel; correspondence home from Peter Stein's grandson from on board the ship in the 1970s; and much other material.John Wayne's shipboard life was an important outlet from the pressures of Hollywood, especially as his health deteriorated in later years. On the Wild Goose, he could escape publicity and spend time with his friends and family. The photographs and letters here provide an interesting window into this private, gilded sanctum on the waves.
