Turkey 1509------- Mitilini, Greece 1867
There's something poetic about my abysmal html/graphic handling techniques being demonstrated in a post whose illustrations portray earthquakes. Click on the links below the pictures for larger images.
Moscow 1445--------- Istanbul 1556: comet AND earthquake
The National Information Service for Earthquake Engineering at University of California, Berkeley have the Jan T Kozak Exhibition: Historical Images of Earthquakes on display. There are a larger number of images than I expected (875!) and this includes photographs. They range from 464BC to 1932 and can be displayed chronologically or alphabetically.
- The Getty Research Institute have a 1-page exhibit called Irresistable Decay which I think complements the NISEE display.
- There are some other presentations (including footage) about earthquakes on the NISEE homepage.
