Charles Reeves, Canvasback
Lot Details & Additional Photographs
Charles P. Reeves (1877-1941), Long Point, Ontario, Canada. This rare masterwork is truly stunning in hand. It has a solid body with approximately 200 tacks precisely applied to attach the canvas on the body. Charles offered, for an extra fee, to cover his wooden decoys with canvas. This is one of those examples. The surface of this decoy is outstanding.

Length 16 in.

From the Collection of Walton Morris, Barco, North Carolina
