User:Frutti di Mare/SandboxFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Painting by an unknown artist of the Great Fire of London, probably from 1666 and held in the Museum of London. Following text copied from the museum site: "The fire as it would have appeared between eight and nine o'clock on the evening of Tuesday 4th September from a boat in the vicinity of Tower Wharf. ... The wharf in front of the Tower did not in fact exist and may be attributed to artistic licence, but the general mood and details such as the sparks rising in the night sky suggest the artist was an eye-witness."
