This watercolour by Peter Fabris is part of the plates from Sir William Hamilton FSA's Campi Phlegræi: Observations on the #Volcanos of the Two Sicilies. This image shows the view of the great eruption of Mount Vesuvius on Sunday night, August 8th 1779. #MountVesuvius
These paintings of Vesuvius were done by an anonymous artist. Ca. 1860
