Unlike Icarus' flimsy flying apparatus, this classic literary t-shirt is structurally sound.
Embrace the timeless wisdom (or warning) about flying too close to the sun as depicted by Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s iconic painting The Fall of Icarus. A perfect blend of 16th century black humor and cunning composition, this tee tells the tragic tale of Icarus and his ill-fated flight. Bruegel’s famous piece shows Icarus plunging from the sky unnoticed by the world around him. It may not take a genius to work out what Breughel's telling us about ego and consequences, but it does subtlely remind us that we can all sometimes miss the bigger picture.
If you’re forever quoting from classical mythology, why not sport the wisdom of the ages—but without the big Icarus ego.
