EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the ancient Greek myth of Daedalus and Icarus. Painted by Joseph-Marie Vien in 1754, "Daedalus Attaching Icarus Wings" depicts the pivotal moment when Daedalus, a skilled craftsman and inventor, attaches wings made of feathers and wax onto his son's back. The scene is filled with anticipation as father and son stand together in what seems like a sacred ritual. The vibrant colors of the oil on canvas bring life to their figures against a backdrop that hints at the vastness of their impending flight. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we cannot help but feel a sense of wonder and awe. However, hidden within this beautiful image lies a cautionary tale. Icarus' fate is sealed as he flies too close to the sun despite his father's warnings. The tragedy unfolds before our eyes as we witness Icarus' wings melting away due to the intense heat. Vien's portrayal captures both the joyous excitement of exploration and discovery alongside the tragic consequences that can arise from unchecked ambition. This timeless artwork serves as a reminder for us all to heed wise counsel while pursuing our dreams. Displayed proudly at Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, this painting continues to inspire generations with its powerful storytelling and exquisite craftsmanship.
