EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print of "Icarus, c. 1900" by Sidney Meteyard, we are transported to a world where mythology and art intertwine. The image showcases Icarus, the legendary figure from Greek mythology who dared to fly too close to the sun with his wax wings. Meteyard's artistic interpretation beautifully captures the essence of Icarus' tragic tale. With meticulous attention to detail, he portrays Icarus suspended in mid-air, his delicate wings spread wide against a backdrop of vibrant colors. The artist's use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene, evoking a sense of both awe and vulnerability. As we gaze upon this print, we cannot help but be drawn into Icarus' story - his ambition, his audacity, and ultimately his downfall. It serves as a poignant reminder of the human desire for freedom and exploration while also cautioning against excessive pride that can lead to one's undoing. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been made accessible through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform. Its inclusion in their vast catalogue allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Meteyard's skillful portrayal of this timeless mythological character. "Icarus, c. 1900" is not just an image; it is an invitation to reflect on our own aspirations and limitations as humans reaching for new heights.
