Herbert James Draper (1863–1920) was a British academic painter celebrated for his luxurious, technically accomplished mythological and allegorical canvases. His ocean fantasies and nymph subjects — particularly The Lament for Icarus and Flying Fish — combine Pre-Raphaelite colour with a naturalistic energy that set him apart from his contemporaries.
