Richmond Mandarin Duck with Fish - Original Embroidery
A figurative hand embroidered artwork from the Royal Park Life collection, inspired by the wildlife photographed in Richmond Park in the Isabella Plantation. A tonal pencil drawing of a mandarin duck is printed onto cotton-satin fabric, into which Susannah has meticulously hand stitched the extraordinary colours of the plumage — rich oranges, deep purples, iridescent teals and warm golds — using fine machine embroidery threads. The fish at the duck's feet adds a quiet moment of narrative to the composition. Unique, framed and available for sale.
