"Shoveler Drake" is a notable watercolor painting by the American artist Frank Weston Benson, created in 1931. Benson, who was born in 1862 and passed away in 1951, was a prominent figure in American art, known for his contributions to both the American Impressionist movement and wildlife art. His work often depicted scenes of outdoor life, particularly focusing on hunting, fishing, and birdwatching, reflecting his deep appreciation for nature and wildlife.

"Shoveler Drake" exemplifies Benson's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects with a keen eye for detail and a masterful use of light and color. The painting portrays a shoveler drake, a type of dabbling duck known for its distinctive large, spatula-shaped bill. Benson's rendering of the bird is both realistic and expressive, showcasing his ability to convey the texture of the feathers and the subtle play of light on the water.

The composition of "Shoveler Drake" is carefully balanced, with the bird positioned in a way that draws the viewer's eye across the painting. Benson's use of watercolor allows for a fluidity and transparency that enhances the naturalistic feel of the scene. The background, though less detailed, provides a harmonious setting that complements the central figure of the drake.

Benson's work, including "Shoveler Drake," has been celebrated for its technical excellence and its ability to evoke the serene beauty of the natural world. His paintings are held in high regard by collectors and art historians alike, and they continue to be exhibited in museums and galleries across the United States. "Shoveler Drake" remains a testament to Benson's enduring legacy as one of America's foremost painters of wildlife and outdoor scenes.
