"Feeding the Ducks" is an oil painting by the British artist Ernst Walbourn (1872–1927), known for his idyllic and bucolic scenes that often feature women and children in English countryside settings. This particular work, as the title suggests, depicts a tranquil moment where the subjects are engaged in the simple, timeless activity of feeding ducks. The painting is characteristic of Walbourn's impressionistic style, with a soft palette and loose brushwork that captures the play of light and shadow, as well as the movement of water and the gentle interactions between the figures and the birds.

The composition typically features a pastoral landscape, a hallmark of Walbourn's oeuvre, which serves as a backdrop to the intimate human-animal interaction. The artist's focus on everyday rural life, combined with his technical skill in rendering the effects of natural light, has garnered him a place among notable British impressionists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "Feeding the Ducks" is emblematic of Walbourn's work during a period when there was a romanticized fascination with the English countryside, reflecting a desire for a return to simpler times amidst the rapid changes of the Industrial Revolution and the ensuing social transformations.

While the exact date of creation for "Feeding the Ducks" is not well-documented, it is representative of Walbourn's mature period, when he had established his reputation for charming rural scenes. The painting's provenance, current location, and exhibition history are not specified in widely available sources, which is not uncommon for works by artists whose recognition is more modest in the broader scope of art history. Nevertheless, "Feeding the Ducks" contributes to the understanding of genre painting in Britain during the turn of the century and offers insight into the nostalgic yearnings of the era.
