Still, the colors of the print products and the printing may differ slightly from the image on the screen. Depending on your settings of your screen and the quality of the surface, not all colors are printed as realistically as the digital version depicted here. Bearing in mind that all our fine art prints are printed and processed by hand, there might as well be minor differences in the exact position and the size of the motif.

For centuries, artists and tourists were attracted to Mount Vesuvius, a volcano near Naples. This awe-inspriing, not to say terrifying, natural wonder destroyed the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, and continued to erupt from time to time, as it does to this day. While living in London in 1868, Albert Bierstadt heard that Vesuvius had erupted once again, and rushed immediately to Italy. It is not certain that the artist actually saw the cataclysm, although the painting presents a convincing image of the ash and lava spewed by the volcano. This is a smaller version of a larger canvas now lost.
