Icarus Rising II

Nicola Godden’s sculpture of the Greek mythological figure of Icarus, pictured in the gardens at Beaulieu

Icarus Rising is the second-largest Icarus bronze sculpture Nicola has created so far and the eleventh in the series.

Nicola loves, and is inspired by, the story of the mythological boy Icarus and his escape with his father Daedalus from King Minos. It is the story of courage and the flight to freedom. Nicola modelled the work loosely to capture the feeling of movement in the form.

The artwork is shown here in the stunning gardens at Beaulieu

This work is 260cm tall with the wooden base base shown in the pictures, approximately 235cm without the base. It is 200m wide and 60cm deep from front to back. The wooden base is 1.2m square.

his bronze sculpture is hand made and may take a few months to cast into bronze. Each one of the limited edition will be slightly different simply because of the nature of being made by hand. It is made in England.

The process is a lengthy one and an ancient one, the lost wax process, which produces artwork that lasts forever.
