Magic Lantern slide circa 1900 hand coloured. Titled Cities and places of interest in the Mediterranean.31.—THE BAY OP NAPLES AND VESUVIUS. The volcanic mountain of Vesuvius is the great attraction of the traveller who does not go to Naples for sunshine and warmth, though the inhabitants living in its immediate neighbourhood scarcely regard it in the same light. Its eruptions have of lateyearsbeen less severe than formerly, and none has ever since taken place equal to the one which destroyed Pompeii. When it is prognosticated that a fresh one is coming all the visitors to the towns and seaside resorts in the vicinity flock to Naples, and excursions are daily made to it and when it actually begins its eruptions hot a bed is sometimes to be obtained.
