EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time as we explore the ancient ruins of Pompeii, Italy, in this coloured lantern slide from the late 1890s. The image captures the awe-inspiring Street of the Tombs, where history comes alive under the Italian sun. Two curious tourists, dressed in fashionable attire of the era, are seen admiring the intricate details of the ancient Roman architecture. The Street of the Tombs, known for its elaborate tombs and shops, was once a bustling commercial and residential area before being buried under volcanic ash during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. The vibrant colours of the lantern slide bring the ruins to life, transporting us back to a time when chariots rumbled through the streets and the sounds of daily life filled the air. The intricate mosaics and frescoes, which have miraculously survived the test of time, can be seen adorning the walls of the buildings, adding to the richness of the scene. The Street of the Tombs is just one of the many wonders that Pompeii has to offer, making it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and travellers alike. This fascinating glimpse into the past, captured on a lantern slide over a century ago, serves as a reminder of the enduring allure of Italy's ancient history.
