An 1888 lithograph of the 1883 eruption of Krakatoa.
The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa in the Sunda Strait occurred
from 20 May until 21 October 1883, peaking in the late
morning hours of 27 August when over 70% of the island
of Krakatoa and its surrounding archipelago were destroyed
as it collapsed into a caldera.
The eruption was one of the deadliest and most destructive
volcanic events in recorded history.
