Philipp Rumpf captured this scene near the Brentano Park in Rödelheim with delicate strokes of graphite and colored chalk. Look at the ducks; these creatures, seemingly simple, carry a rich symbolic weight. Ducks have long been emblems of adaptability, seamlessly navigating both water and land. Their presence in art is no mere accident. Consider their earlier appearances: In ancient Egyptian art, waterfowl were associated with the soul's journey. Later, in medieval bestiaries, ducks could symbolize vigilance or foolishness, depending on the tale. Even in modern times, they continue to evoke our complex relationship with nature. Here, Rumpf’s ducks, set against the misty backdrop, trigger a deep, subconscious recognition of nature's enduring presence. Like a recurring dream, their image evokes a sense of continuity, of the natural world ever-present in our collective memory. They remind us that symbols evolve, yet their power to move us remains.
