Although information on duck decoys is scarce, in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries many of the Dutch country estates would have had a duck decoy on their land, a pursuit as common as finch lanes (vinkenbanen) and falconry. For instance, near Delft the owner of the now-lost Pasgeld residence, Pieter Teding van Berkhout (1643-1713), who indulged in hunting and catching finches and thrushes on his estate grounds, mentions in his diary in 1686 the first ducks to reside in his duck (decoy) pond. The number of decoys declined during the eighteenth and nineteenth century due to intensified agriculture, changing water levels, and urbanization. From the 1,000 to 1,500 decoys that once existed, in 2008 only 113 remained. (Engels)

In the period 2001-2007 the average catch of all the combined Dutch decoys consisted of 15.000 ducks a year, which is less than 1% of the autumn population. Most ducks currently captured are ringed for research purposes, and decoys have now become nature preserves and quiet sanctuaries. Although decoys are known in seven European countries (Belgium, Denmark, France, Ireland, Germany, Great-Britain and the Netherlands), they are considered a typically Dutch phenomenon and part of Holland’s cultural identity, just like Dutch Delftware itself. To Great Britain, where ‘duck drives’ were known from the thirteenth century onward, the Dutch introduced the decoys in the seventeenth century, and ‘de kooi’ (‘the cage’) became known as ‘decoy’.

The duck-hunting techniques evolved from the thirtheenth and fourteenth century in Flanders came to full development in the Northern Netherlands. The oldest archival reference to decoys in the Netherlands dates from 1453, from the province of Gelderland. But it isn’t until the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, the heyday of Dutch decoys, that engravings provide visual information on decoys. One of the oldest print sources is an engraving by Philips Galle (1537-1612) after Hans Bol (1534-1593), dated 1582 (fig. 1). The decoyman looks through the screen while two swimming dogs chase the ducks toward the pipe, and on the right two other men are collecting the trapped ducks. Decoys with two trapping pipes, as painted on the present aviary dispensers are unusual. However, the painting ‘La chasse au canard’ by Jacques-Guillaume van Blarenberghe (1691-1742) does depict two pipe entries next to each other, as does a manganese tile picture (Utrecht, circa 1800-1920).
