"Landscape with the Fall of Icarus" is a poem by author William Carlos William. The poem describes the painting by Pieter Brueghel of the famous mythological story. <u>The painting depicts the character, Icarus, falling from the sky into the blue water of the ocean after the wax wings he had used to fly with were melted by the sun. However, as both the poem and the painting make sure to highlight, no one notices Icarus's fate. The world simply goes on without any consideration for the suffering of poor Icarus. The ship that was sailing by keeps on sailing; that farmer that was ploughing keeps on ploughing. If the event does not affect them directly, people give it no importance.</u>
