Answer:

Close to the shore

Step-by-step explanation:

In this painting, we can see that Icarus fell to his death very close to the shore. If we pay attention, we can see Icarus at the bottom right of the painting. He is drowning, while everyone else is occupied with their work. The painting is particularly frustrating due to how close Icarus is to the shore. This painting is an interpretation of the myth of Daedalus and Icarus.
