Being of the most diverse types (engravings, paintings, photographs, film documents, etc.), these sources are useful to scholars from different disciplines for supplementing information on the estimation of damage and other effects, on the response of institutions, on scientific observations, etc. Along with written sources, this evidence contributes to reconstructing an accurate portrait of the effects of earthquakes on both the anthropic and natural environment (Baranello et al., 2019). The informative value of these sources prompted us to begin their systematic retrieval in national and international archives with which specific collaboration agreements have been established, and to organize them in a portal called CFTIvisual, Atlante delle fonti visive dei terremoti italiani ( https://cfti.ingv.it/visual/ , Bianchi et al. 2022 ). The Atlas, developed as part of Task 1, Work Package 1 "Terremoti", of the 2019-2021 Agreement “B2” between the Italian Civil Protection Department and INGV, is addressed to a vast audience: from individuals to scholars of various disciplines, such as restoration science, seismology, engineering, urban planning, historical sciences, and the history of photography and cinematography (Fanelli and Ferrari, 2022).
