<u>
Explanation:
</u>
Landscape with the Fall of Icarus is a canvas oil painting by "Pieter Bruegel the Elder" that depicts the legs of Icarus splashing into the water as its wings collapse.
Icarus is often used as a metaphor for human pride and ambition. This exhibits the humanity, the season, the farmer and nature. Silently the author questions human nature and their self interest.
The poem sets out a rising theme of irresponsibility and individualism between mankind. Nowadays no one has time to consider about and stress about the concerns of others.
The Fall of Icarus is humanity's downfall. This also shows weakening human ideals and human nature. Icarus interacted fairly with both nature and humans. The farmer had been able to support Icarus and keep him alive. Likewise, Icarus showed little loyalty to both the sun and the sea.
