Painting of the Italian painter Sebastian Ricci “Fall of Phaeton”. The size of the painting is 285 x 222 cm, oil on canvas. As mentioned above, Ricci mainly painted pictures on religious, mythological, allegorical and historical subjects, worked in the field of monumental painting.
The composition of the artist “The Fall of Phaeton” was created based on the Greek myth. In ancient mythology, Phaeton was the son of the sun god Helios. By controlling the father’s chariot, Phaeton could not hold back the fire-breathing horses, which, having come close to the ground, almost burnt her; to prevent a catastrophe, Zeus struck Phaethon with a thunderbolt, and the son of the sun god Helios, blazing, fell into the river.
