Relief showing the fall of Icarus above the door to the Desolate Estate Room in the City Hall on Dam Square, Hubert Quellinus, after Artus Quellinus (I), 1719 - 1783, Relief showing the fall of Icarus above the door to the Desolate Estate Room in the north gallery of the City Hall on Dam Square in Amsterdam. Despite the warnings of his father Daedalus (the winged man on the right), Icarus flew too close to the sun, melting the wax from his wings and causing him to fall. Above the Desolation Estate Room - where bankruptcies were declared and handled - this relief serves as a warning to the viewer: Icarus' recklessness and hubris led to his fall, just as recklessness and hubris could lead to bankruptcy.
