This Icarus tattoo is almost exactly like a Led Zeppelin album, but the arm is slightly different. We’re not sure what the purpose of the change was, but it’s still very close to the original.

This tattoo is the original artwork by American artist William Rimmer. The name of the piece is call Evening (Fall of Day). Led Zeppelin used this for the basis of their Swan Song label, changing the left arm to an outreach position.
The design is indeed the work of William Rimmer. Rimmer’s artwork is not intended to represent Icarus but rather the Greek god of light, Apollo.
