"The Fall of Phaeton" is a significant painting by the Italian artist Sebastiano Ricci, created between 1703 and 1704. This artwork depicts the mythological story of Phaeton, the son of the Sun god Helios, from Ovid's "Metamorphoses." According to the myth, Phaeton sought to prove his divine paternity by driving his father's sun chariot. However, he lost control of the horses, leading to chaos in the heavens and on Earth. To prevent further disaster, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt, causing Phaeton to fall to his death.

Sebastiano Ricci, a prominent painter of the late Baroque period, was known for his dynamic compositions and vibrant use of color, both of which are evident in this work. The painting captures the dramatic moment of Phaeton's fall, emphasizing the movement and emotional intensity characteristic of the Baroque style. Ricci's rendering of the figures and the use of light showcase his skill in creating a sense of depth and three-dimensionality.

"The Fall of Phaeton" by Ricci is an important example of the artist's mature work and contributes to our understanding of Baroque art and its thematic exploration of human emotion, divine intervention, and the power of nature. The painting is also notable for its influence on later artists and its reflection of the cultural and artistic trends of the early 18th century.
