Camillo de Vito was a real gouache specialist and painter of the eruptions of Vesuvius and views of the Neapolitan landscape such as Notturno of the Ferdinandea island (1831) or Eruption of Vesuvius of 19 December, 1820, which derived from the illustrations of a coeval text description of the island King Ferdinand. He is still remembered by the sources as "painter of views of Naples."

Rare Hand Colored "Cabane Des Hold" - 1st Ed "Description de l’Univers" C. 1683
By Alain Manesson Mallet
Located in Soquel, CA
Rare Engraving "Cabane Des Hold, Terres Artiques, Fig CII," 1st edition "Description de l’Univers, page 281 This rare image depicts the Willem Barentsz expedition of 1597 to Novaya Zemlya, Russia. The engraving, with later hand-coloring, shows the cabin and ship of the Dutch arctic expedition of Barentsz on Novaya Zemlya (Nova Zembla), with the party being attacked (and in some cases apparently eaten) by bears and wolves. Dutch explorer, Willem Barentsz, reached the west coast of Novaya Zemlya in 1594, and in a subsequent expedition of 1596 rounded the northern point and wintered on the northeast coast. Barentsz died during the expedition, and may have been buried on the northern island. This artwork is a page from a book by 17th century cartographer and engineer, Allain Manesson Mallet (French, 1630-1706), "Description de L'Univers, contenant les differents systêmes du monde, les cartes générals et particulières de la géographie ancienne et modern." Paris: Denys Thierry, 1683. Presented in an cream colored mat. Text on verso shown in images.

Eruption of Vesuvium 1810 - Original Gouache by Camillo de Vito - 1810
By Camillo de Vito
Located in Roma, IT
Eruzione del 1810 is a wonderful gouache on paper, made around 1810 by the Italian painter Camillo de Vito. Title and signature in black tempera on the lower margin. This is a really beautiful gouache of the first half of the nineteenth century representing the spectacular phenomena of the eruption of Vesuvius in 1810 under a suggestive full moon obscured by an cloud of ash and lapilli, still today marvels for the brilliance of the lava colors and which seems to be really glowing . It makes that feeling palpable, which is also an Enlightenment aesthetic category, of the sublime, or of the ecstasy mixed with the fear of man in the face of natural phenomena of this magnitude. We feel like the fisherman portrayed in the foregroud and bewildered in front of this show. In Good condition, it preserves the brightness of the colors and shows a very loose hand, with some very small abrasion and widespread fungal blooms, margins with some abrasion, a light water stain at the center and a light wavy paper. Since Vesuvius awakens, starting in 1631, the volcano becomes an iconic image of the city of Naples. His eruptions attracted incredibly scholars and visitors from all over the world. First represented for devotional purposes with San Gennaro next to the crater, it later became a must for the Grand Tour, together with the ruins of Pompeii and Herculaneum, it is painted and celebrated by a large number of renowned foreign artists. Claude-Joseph Vernet, Hubert Robert, Jean-Honoré Fragonard establish new iconographic canons for the representation of Vesuvius and its surroundings which become simplified the reference models in the following century. It was the German Jacques Philipp Hackert (1737-1807) who rediscovered the technique of the gouache at the end of the 18th century and Pietro Fabris (doc. 1754 - 1779) who used it in the representations of Vesuvius in eruption, commissioned by Sir William Hamilton (1779) , as a supplement to five works at Campi Phlegraei...
