Dolores de Sade

Dolores de Sade created a 2011 print titled Study for the Fall of Icarus, a modern take on a classic myth. The piece reimagines the moment Icarus plummets from the sky, wings melting, in crisp lines and stark contrast. It sits in a quiet corner between modern printmaking and classical storytelling, no movement label, just the artist’s hand and a single, sharp image.
