Published in stunning colour, A Day in Pompeii depicts the daily life of one of the world's most extraordinary cities, Pompeii. On August 24, A.D. 79, the Roman city of Pompeii was buried by the catastrophic eruption of MountVesuvius. The very debris and ash that so suddenly and violently ended life in Pompeii also encased the city in a virtual time capsule. As a result, Pompeii is today one of the most complete and intact archaeological sites in the world.A Day in Pompeii takes us back in time to experience life and death in a cosmopolitan city. Featuring exceptional objects that laid buried in Pompeii's ruins for over 17 centuries, including room size frescoes, marble and bronze sculptures, jewellery, gold coins and everyday household items, evoking the richness and culture of daily life in the Roman Empire's favourite vacation resort. The most poignant and dramatic are the body casts of the volcano's victims, frozen in their last moments-a couple in their final embrace, a man clutching a cloth to his mouth, a fleeing slave with his ankle manacle still in place and a dog struggling on its chain.
