According to Boyce, on
the wall of one of the rear rooms of VII.3.22/23, was a painting of two serpents
confronted at an altar.
In the background were
plants and among them, at the time, was visible the tail of a third serpent, but
the rest of the body had disappeared.
Below the painting was
the graffito: LARES
