Ball lightning is a curious, complex and multifaceted atmospheric phenomenon whose nature remains a subject of some controversy. Eyewitness reports of ball lightning allow a fuller and more objective description of the phenomenon to be formulated. This work presents a report describing a ball lightning event observed on 19 February 1783 in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) by Bento Sanches Dorta.
