EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Fall of Phaeton, 1808" transports viewers to a world of ancient mythology and breathtaking artistry. Painted by James Ward in oil on panel, this masterpiece measures an impressive 112.7x74.5 cm and is part of the Tabley House Collection at the University of Manchester in the UK. In this dramatic depiction, we witness the tragic downfall of Phaeton, son of Helios, as he plummets from his father's chariot after losing control. Struck down by Jupiter's thunderbolt, Phaeton's fate is sealed amidst a tumultuous sky filled with dark clouds and swirling winds. Ward skillfully captures the intensity and chaos of this pivotal moment through his masterful brushstrokes and use of vibrant colors. The viewer can almost feel the sheer power emanating from Jupiter as he unleashes his wrath upon the ill-fated youth. This painting draws inspiration from Ovid's Metamorphoses, a classic work that recounts mythical tales. It serves as a reminder that even those blessed with divine lineage are not immune to their own hubris and its consequences. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork captured by Bridgeman Images for Fine Art Finder, we are reminded both of our mortality and our capacity for greatness – a poignant reflection on human nature that transcends time itself.
