Hannah Sturdy / Picture 3 of 6 / Icarus
  | Another silk painting done a couple of years ago, based on the Greek myth of Icarus. For those of you who don’t know it, Icarus and his father Daedalus were imprisoned by King Minos and to escape Daedalus made them some wings held together with wax. He managed to get to safety but sadly Icarus flew too close to the sun, so the wax melted and he fell into the sea. By the way, don't bother translating the border, it's just the Greek alphabet. ~Silk paints~ |
