The intricate illustrative technique used in this 19th-century style engraving brings to life the history and culture of this enchanting island nation. The retro-styled print transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand the impact of natural disasters on our built environment. The ruins stand as a testament to both human resilience and nature's power, serving as a poignant reminder of our vulnerability in the face of such forces.
