"A (fake) picture of collapsing Campanile di San Marco by Antonio de Paoli (1902). Nice example of ""photshopping"" in the early 1900s. On the days before the collapse the tower began to groan, so municipality and citizens were somehow prepared. However those weren't the times of iPhone but glass photo plates and it's unlikely that exactly the moment of the collapse was catched on glass. What exists are montages that illustrate the drama (in which btw no person was killed... however a cat)."
