The poet Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon
The poet Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon, oil on canvas painting |
The moon has set
And the Pleiades;
It is midnight,
The time is going by,
And I sleep alone.
This is Sappho's midnight poem. This poem has inspired me to make the painting above, a painting of a lonely Sappho watching the Pleiades and the moon while they set at midnight.
Recently the UTA researchers have dated this poem between January 25 and March 31.
Sappho has written this poem feeling lonely, as lonely as I feel, that feeling of loneliness that we all have when we cannot be with the one we love or we want to love.

Sappho, the Pleiades and the moon
This is my ballpoint pen drawing of a sad and lonely Sappho watching the moon and the Pleiades.
The poem below, one of her creations, has inspired me
The moon has set,
And the Pleiades;
It is midnight,
The time is going by,
And I sleep alone.
