The sculptor always had an attraction to sculpting the female figure and this piece perfectly showcases his great ability and passion. The figure combines the nobility of marble and the dignity of the subject but the clarity of the construction, the wildness of the gesture, the meditative intensity of expression suddenly give it a presence and intense interiority: the antique poetess Sappho, in despair, is thinking of suicide. This piece was exposed at the Salon in 1852 when the sculptor suddenly died, the female figure was covered with a black veil as a tribute to the artist who created it.
