"Sappo" is a renowned etching by the Swedish artist Anders Zorn, created the year 1917. As one of Zorn's mature works, it aptly demonstrates his masterful line work, depiction of nude figures, and intricate composition. The work is a highly detailed black and white etching featuring a scene inspired by the ancient Greek poetess, Sappho.

Zorn's "Sappo" embodies a dramatic narrative within its compact format. The etching shows two figures, presumably women, in an interior setting. One figure, placed in the foreground, is starkly nude. The other figure is seen in profile and appears to be reading from a scroll, implying a narration or recitation. Zorn's illustration of the nude figure renders a sense of corporeal immediacy and subtle eroticism, a notable feature of his oeuvre.

While Zorn is known for his many self-portraits and prints featuring his native Swedish landscapes and culture, "Sappo" stands out in his body of work for its classical, literary theme. It reflects Zorn's extensive travels and personal interest in the culture of ancient Greece. This particular etching can be viewed as an allegory, Zorn's tribute to the tradition of storytelling and its profound influence on the artist's understanding of history and legacy.

Anders Zorn's "Sappo" is held in various public museum collections globally, testifying to its significance within the artist's body of work, and within the wider canon of European prints. The etching continues to be highly valued by collectors, owing to the artist's technical brilliance, the evocative subject matter, and its enduring relevance in the realm of visual arts.
