Pieter ‘the elder” was a renowned Dutch and Flemish Renaissance painter, specifically known for his landscapes and daily depiction of 15th century living. Brueghel played a large role in the formative Dutch Golden Age of artistry. The landscape with the fall of Icarus is said to have only survived in copies. The painting depicts a typical rural scene by the water front, however as calm and mundane as the painting displays, one can see a pair of flaying legs in the Ocean just below the ship setting sail. The legs belonging to Icarus, a Greek Deity whom flew too close to the sun, and his wax wings melted, causing him to dive deep into the sea and drown.
