"Phaeton 1878-79" is a significant work by the French Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau. The painting, which was completed between 1878 and 1879, depicts the tragic story of Phaeton from Greek mythology. Phaeton, the son of the sun god Helios, is shown in the midst of his ill-fated journey driving his father's sun chariot, a task he was not capable of handling. The painting is a vivid representation of Moreau's distinctive style, characterized by its intricate detail, rich color, and incorporation of mythological themes.

Moreau's interpretation of the myth is noted for its dramatic intensity and the sense of impending doom. The painting is filled with symbolic elements, such as the sun horses running wild and the earth below appearing to burn, reflecting Phaeton's loss of control and the disastrous consequences of his actions. The work is also notable for its exploration of the themes of hubris, punishment, and the destructive power of uncontrolled ambition.

"Phaeton 1878-79" is considered one of Moreau's most important works and is a key example of the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the emotional and symbolic aspects of human experience. The painting is currently housed in the Gustave Moreau Museum in Paris, France.
