The works of Micco Spadaro, a Neapolitan Baroque painter, narrate the turbulences of the 17th century in Naples. As a landscape artist and visual witness to eruptions, epidemics, and the Masaniello revolt, his realistic style offers a unique and raw vision of the tragic urban events. The San Martino Museum recently acquired "L'Eruzione," a painting that captures the desperation during the eruption of Vesuvius in 1631, highlighting the people's faith in a procession led by Cardinal Boncompagni, imploring the miraculous intercession of Saint Januarius.
