The volcano exploded.

Like previous large-scale volcanic eruptions, the eruption of the Caracas volcano has also had a huge impact on the global climate, with bright red sunsets witnessed by people around the world, global temperatures declining and its interference with the climate for up to 5 years. As the media has increasingly developed in the late 19th century, the eruption of the Caracas volcano has thus become the first large volcanic eruption that has attracted widespread attention, follow-up reports in European and American news newspapers make it very different from previous eruptions.

It is worth mentioning that this eruption caused the sight of the sky to raise widespread attention, and people speculated and commented on its causes. Of course, people at that time could not fully understand its causes, so many people were afraid of its "inherent revelation" meaning. However, this phenomenon gave the artists the material. In the Norwegian artist Edward Munch's 1893 Scream, a ugly figure shouted with his hands over his head, and the backdrop of the sky was filled with flames and blood-like yellow colors. This background is said to be the reflection of the "glorious sunrise" caused by the eruption of the volcano in Caracas. This phenomenon can also be seen in a series of paintings by British painter William Ashcroft.
