Dido's Lament

The painting above depicts the Death of Dido, and was painted by the British painter Thomas Robson (1798-1871). After hearing Diana's presentation on this doomed love story between Dido and Aeneas, we can understand the sensuality and passion that lie behind, can't we? You are invited to listen to Dido's last aria in Purcell's famous opera Dido and Aeneas. May this beautiful music serve to rest our minds after the mid-year exams strain. Thanks Diana!
