An eruption plume rises above Fossa cone on Vulcano in 1888 in this photo taken from a position offshore to the NE during the last historical eruption of the volcano. The eruption began on August 2, and persistant explosive activity, occasionally accompanied by minor pyroclastic surges, continued until March 22, 1890.
