The Forum, Pompeii, with Vesuvius in the Distance, 1841. Under a brilliant, clear blue sky, a sense of stillness and abandonment prevails over the ruins of the ancient city of Pompeii, which was buried and reduced to ruins in A.D. 79 by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius - the volcano seen looming in the background.
