337 Albert Hood (Exh.1874-1878) "Sappho"; 'And say Dark Waters, 'Will ye give me Peace?' signed and inscribed with title on the artist's label attached to the stretcher further inscribed with artist's address 168 Brompton Road oil on canvas 124.5 x 99.5cm. Sappho was born in the late 700s BC on Lesbos, one of the larger islands in the Aegean, near Lydia (now Turkey). Lesbos was important for trade between mainland Greece and the kingdoms of Asia; it was also a cultural center. Her poetry suggests that she was the centre of a closely-knit group of women; an academy or perhaps a chorus of singers. We know that Sappho composed epithalamia (marriage songs) for performance by a group, but her preferred form seems to have been songs to be sung or recited by an individual to the accompaniment of a lyre, some perhaps for religious or civic festivals £1000-1500
