EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a pivotal moment in classical mythology - the beginning of Icarus' ill-fated flight. The image depicts Icarus, with his wings crafted by his father Daedalus, standing on the edge of a cliff ready to take off into the sky. The sense of anticipation and excitement is palpable as Icarus prepares to soar through the heavens.
Richmond's artistic interpretation of this iconic scene from Greek mythology is both powerful and evocative. The attention to detail in depicting Icarus' wings, poised for flight, adds a sense of realism to this fantastical tale. The use of light and shadow creates a dramatic effect, enhancing the mythological significance of the moment captured in this print.
As viewers gaze upon this image, they are transported back in time to an era where gods and mortals mingled freely, where daring feats were performed with reckless abandon. It serves as a reminder of the consequences that can arise from unchecked ambition and hubris.
Overall, Richmond's portrayal of Icarus starting out on his flight is a testament to the enduring power and relevance of classical myths. It invites us to reflect on our own desires for greatness and reminds us that even those who reach for the stars may ultimately fall back down to earth.
