Mount Vesuvius volcano erupts, December 16, 1631, one of its repeated eruptions through the ages. Though nowhere nearly intense as the famous Pompeian eruption, ash from the 1631 eruption fell as far distant as Constaninople (present day Istanbul) 1200 kilometers away. After a work by Joachim von Sandrart.
