The oil painting 'Duck Pond in Taufkirchen', dated 1975, portrays a vibrant and lively pond scene teeming with ducks gliding across the water, surrounded by lush greenery and overhanging branches. The expressive brushwork and richly textured surface create a dynamic composition full of energy. The ducks, painted in varied colors and postures, animate the pond's surface, which shimmers in blue, green, and golden hues. The artist's impressionistic handling of light and color gives the piece a natural, spontaneous charm. Oil on canvas. The signature 'AM 75' is located in the lower left corner. The painting is set in a simple wooden frame, enhancing its earthy, pastoral character.

Alexander Michael (1939-2024) was a German landscape, still life and architectural painter. His paintings can be stylistically assigned to Impressionism or a late Impressionist style. His loose painting style, applied with a sure hand, creates a lively and atmospheric effect with visible brushstrokes and bright colors. The light conditions, color tones and the artist's subjective perception are characteristic of his works.
