Lago Agnano and the Grotta del Cane, 1825. Lago Agnano was a circular lake, measuring some 6½ km in circumference and occupying the crater of the extinct volcano of Agnano, near Pozzuoli, 8 km west of Naples. On its south bank are the natural sulphur baths of Stufe di San Germano and nearby is the Grotta del Cane. The lake was emptied in 1870 but for much of the 18th and 19th centuries was a popular subject for artists.
