"Panorama di Pompei" is a black and white photograph by the Italian photographer Giorgio Sommer, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century. The photo depicts the ruins of the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, which was buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. The ruins are seen in detail, with the street lined with the remains of buildings and walls. Mount Vesuvius, covered in snow, can be seen in the background. The image is a stunning example of early photographic documentation, capturing the grandeur of Pompeii's ruins and offering a glimpse into its lost history.
