The Lament of Icarus is one of Draper's best-known works, depicting the eponymous reckless son dragged onto a rock by three mourning nymphs. Exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1898, Draper made many detailed drawings of each individual figure before painting a highly finished composition study. The model for Icarus was an Italian, Luigi di Lucca, whose distinctive strong bone structure appeared in many of Draper's works of the 1890s.
