Duck and Duckling

1959

One particular spring in 1959 branded this image into the minds of the Danish population, when a policeman found the time to stop the traffic in order to let a young Duck family pass.

Local papers were quick to publish this image capturing Danish attention to nature. Inspired by the charming Duck family, Hans Bolling designed a pair of small wooden Duck figures, whose characters carry the essence of that Danish spring. Available separately.

Bølling’s work is known for its play, humor and wit. A passionate spirit whose practice and products are inspired by creative diversity, Bølling’s interest in architecture drew him back to school for a secondary degree after training as an advertising designer, growing his practice beyond objects to include villas, living complexes and town halls.
