El mito griego de Ícaro, habla acerca de que Ícaro y su padre
Dédalo, arquitecto que construyó el Laberinto de Creta; estaban retenidos en la isla de Creta, por el rey Minos, y buscan de escapar de la isla volando. Dédalo se puso a trabajar para fabricar alas para él y su hijo. Enlazó plumas entre sí uniendo con hilo las plumas centrales y con cera las laterales, y le dio al conjunto la suave curvatura de las alas de un pájaro. Cuando ambos estuvieron preparados para volar, Dédalo advirtió a Ícaro que no volase demasiado alto porque el calor del sol derretiría la cera, ni demasiado bajo porque la espuma del mar mojaría las alas y no podría volar. Entonces el muchacho comenzó a ascender. El ardiente sol ablandó la cera que mantenía unidas las plumas y estas se despegaron. Ícaro agitó sus brazos, pero no quedaban suficientes plumas para sostenerlo en el aire y cayó al mar. Su padre lloró lamentando amargamente sus artes, y, en su memoria, llamó Icaria a la tierra cercana al lugar del mar en el que Ícaro había caído.
Esta obra de gran colorido y basada en este mito griego, hace referencia a la transmisión de la experiencia de los padres a los hijos. Al observarla detenidamente se aprecia el trabajo en las superficies del fondo y las alas
