About The Artwork
According to Greek mythology Icarus was son of Daedalus,inventor and builder of a maze on the island of Minos. This maze was a home for monster Minotaur. Daedalus once constructed large wings which enabled both men to fly like birds. Daedalus warned his son Icarus not to fly too close to the Sun because wax which he used for bonding feathers to the wings could melt by hot sun rays. Icarus in his youthful enthusiasm did not heed his father warning and flew as high as he could. The heat of the Sun destroyed his wings and Icarus tragically plummeted to the Earth to his death.. Oil paint on canvas on solid stretcher. Sides1.5" painted black.
