EDITORS COMMENTS
DURER: DAEDALUS & ICARUS captures a timeless mythological tale in vivid detail. This colored woodcut, created by the renowned German artist Albrecht Durer in 1493, depicts the tragic story of Daedalus and his son Icarus. In Greek mythology, Daedalus was an ingenious inventor and architect who constructed wings made of feathers and wax for himself and his son to escape their imprisonment on the island of Crete. As they soared through the sky, Icarus became overwhelmed with exhilaration and flew too close to the sun against his father's warnings. The heat melted the wax holding his wings together, causing him to plummet into the sea below. Durer's masterful craftsmanship brings this ancient tale to life with intricate details and vibrant colors. The image showcases Daedalus' paternal concern as he looks back at Icarus while soaring gracefully above clouds. Meanwhile, Icarus gleefully stretches out his arms, reveling in newfound freedom before meeting a tragic fate. This woodcut exemplifies Durer's skill in capturing both human emotion and natural elements within a single composition. It serves as a testament to Renaissance artistry while paying homage to classical mythology that has fascinated generations throughout history. The print is not only a visual delight but also an exploration of themes such as ambition, hubris, parental love, and mortality that remain relevant even today.
