If his wings had remained intact as they are depicted in the painting, he never would've fell to the ground? Wax holding them together melts

Shouldn't his wings have less feathers?

Does anyone know the legalities of creating sculptures of paintings like this? Like if I made a sculpture of those 4 people in those poses
would it be considered plagiarism or a similar "don't steal my idea" crime?

Why tf are his wings still intact?

Nero, or was it Caligula, used to stage stuff like that. And real people, slaves, died in the process.

Rubbing a dead bird all over your naked body is a good way to get a disease.

Wait, why are his wing's still intact? Is this depicting a post-escape nap?

I remember seeing this piece for the first time and being confused because the wings are not made of wax but feathers instead. Still am.

Wax binding feathers together, not made of wax themselves
Yeah well I was a kid back then and only remembered that melting wax was the downfall of the guy.
That's cool! I was just letting you know.

He should've watched vultures flying. Then he would've gotten it.

genuinely one of my favorite artists :)

Wow...thats pretty spectacular

You piece of shit who makes wings out of wax you idiot you moron

If I remember rightly, the feathers were dropped by the birds that daedalus fed at the window, and the wax was from candles.

Hey, the wax was working fine til the guy flew them outside the specified safe zones.
He didn't, they were made of feathers. They were held together with wax. It's a bit difficult to find craft materials locked in a tower.

Isn't real art just amazing? I mean, it's beautiful, meaningful, and thought provoking. Not garish and vulgar like "modern art".
hassanshihabkarim19350
Not all modern art is bad. I think you are talking about abstract art, which I don't like, but if people like it who are we to judge.
But on the other hand most famous art now are just elitist and minupliates to make more money. Still art is subjective; it's people's option

Why don't you look up Thomas Kinkade, a modern painter who I suspect will be right up your alley?
whermyhead
I take it you're not a fan of Piss Christ and other modern "masterpieces"?
If he hadn't called it "Piss Christ", it might have been acceptable, however, the goal of such a work is subversive not uplifting.

Shouldn't his wings be all melty and stuff?

Adamantium wings .. dah

I think it was the wax bindings to the back instead of the actual wings

Does not change the fact that they are still on him.
Still attached to his arms with nothing on the base means flapping is ineffective

I like that there's an argument on the legitimacy of the flight mechanics in an artistic representation of mythology.
Fair point. Lol
