Story about sculpture:

Although the story of Daedalos and Icaros is certainly one of the most dramatic and sad stories in Greek mythology, it is a beautiful one. And very educational and eternally relevant.
How many times our parents warned us about our mistakes, how many times they begged us not to do something stupid... And how many times we also warned our children and sometimes literally got down on their knees to at least take a little bit of our advice.
The truth is that all too often the well-intentioned advice of the more experienced and wiser misses the mark.
Children want to go their own way. Even at the cost of mistakes, mistakes and even falls. At least let's try not to fall from too high a height...
The sculpture is intended not only for lovers of Greek mythology, but also for all parents and their sometimes stubborn children.



Important information:
Even if I state that there are 3-5 copies of a specific sculpture, each of them is actually an original. The technique of my work is atypical and I have to model every single piece of the same sculpture again and create a mold into which the bronze is then poured. Despite over 40 years of experience, even I cannot model any of the other variations of the same motif completely identically. There are minor differences between them, even though in principle it is the same work.
Sometimes it can happen that the work shown in the photo has already been sold in the meantime, and in the case of another order, I have to model this motif again from the beginning and have it cast into a new form. In this case, the time for sending the work is around 3 weeks, and it must be taken into account that this sculpture will differ in a few small details from the depicted work.
But the advantage is that, for the above reasons, the purchased work is unique, and a completely identical work can simply never exist.
