About this work

This watercolor depicts Mount Vesuvius erupting, with a bright column of fire and smoke rising above the cone and glowing lava spilling down its slopes. A crowd gathers on the shoreline in the foreground while sailing boats move across the reflective water of the bay, and a town lies along the coast under a darkened, ember-lit sky.
