The ancient Osca, then Etruscan and finally the Roman city of Pompeii is certainly a wonder of history, art, and culture universally known throughout the world. About this place, today perfectly preserved especially because of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD has been written almost everything, but not only.

It is a place that has fascinated great protagonists of the painting of all time as Picasso, De Chirico, Moreau, Ingres, and many others. Excellent artists of Cinema and Literature from all over the world have also paid homage to Pompeii, identifying themselves with the terrible catastrophe experienced by Pliny the Elder and accurately recounted by his nephew Gaius Caecilius, known as Pliny the Younger.
