The lake of Agnano. Etching, 16--.
Etching of Lake Agnano, near Naples. The Grotta del Cane is in the centre and the steam bath of San Germano is on the right. Three men take a dog into the grotto to demonstrate the experiment in which noxious gases emitted from it cause asphyxiation of the dog. On the left, two local men suspend an asphyxiated dog in the lake in order to revive it: two tourists attend the experiment.
