Glotzer was an accomplished painter known for his luminous landscapes and coastal scenes, with works appearing at auction through Skinner, Inc. and included in the MutualArt database. This evocative mid-20th-century painting captures a flock of mallard ducks in graceful flight over a quiet marshland at sunset.

The artist’s soft palette of gold, green, and muted blue tones creates a peaceful, reflective atmosphere, with fading light glimmering across the rippling water and tall reeds. A small wooden skiff rests along the water’s edge, providing a human touch amid the stillness of nature. Glotzer’s confident brushwork and sensitivity to light reveal his deep appreciation for the New England landscape and its tranquil moods.
