#OTD in 79 A.D. Eruption of Mount Vesivius.

For more than five centuries, until approximately 2018, articles about the eruption of Vesuvius typically stated that the eruption began on August 24, 79 AD. This date came from a 1508 printed copy of a letter addressed by Pliny the Younger to the Roman historian Tacitus, originally written some 25 years after the event. Pliny was a witness to the eruption and provided the only known eyewitness account.

The restored version of John Martin's Destruction of Pompeii and Herculaneum.

In the restored version, the colors are rich and vibrant, bringing to life the chaos and terror of the event. The sky is ablaze with fiery reds, oranges, and yellows, depicting the volcanic eruption in full force. Thick, dark clouds of ash and smoke swirl ominously, dominating the upper portion of the canvas. Below, the cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum are depicted in the throes of destruction, with buildings crumbling, flames raging, and terrified figures fleeing in all directions.

The foreground is filled with desperate figures, their faces contorted in fear and anguish, as they attempt to escape the deadly onslaught. The chaotic scene is contrasted with the grand scale of the landscape, emphasizing the smallness of humanity in the face of nature's wrath.
