EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving by Albrecht Dürer, created in 1493, captures the poignant moment of Icarus and Daedalus soaring through the sky on the wings that Daedalus, the Athenian craftsman, had ingeniously constructed from feathers and wax. The father and son duo fly above the picturesque town, their joyous expressions reflecting the thrill of their daring escape from the labyrinth of Crete. However, the idyllic scene is tinged with a sense of impending danger, as Icarus, the young and impulsive son, flies too close to the sun, causing the wax on his wings to melt, and sending him plummeting into the sea below. Daedalus, with a look of horror, watches his son's tragic fall, powerless to intervene. This hauntingly beautiful image, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, is a testament to Dürer's masterful skill as an engraver and his deep understanding of the human condition. The mythological tale of Icarus and Daedalus, which has captivated audiences for centuries, continues to resonate with us, reminding us of the consequences of hubris and the unbreakable bond between a father and his son.
