IX.7.12 Pompeii. House. Partly excavated in 1867 and 1881.

 

IX.7.12 Pompeii. May 2005. Wide entrance now leading to Casa d’Aquila above the buried ruins. According to Eschebach, the long vestibule, with side rooms of shops 11 and 13, led into the fauces. This led to the atrium with a cubiculum, on the left, and an unknown room, on the right. Behind the atrium was a triclinium where wall paintings were found. See Eschebach, L., 1993. Gebäudeverzeichnis und Stadtplan der antiken Stadt Pompeji. Köln: Böhlau. (p.432) According to Schefold, on the left wall of the triclinium, was a painting of Diana and Actaeon (Sogliano 115). On the rear wall was a painting of Polyphemus and Galatea (Sogliano 688). On the right wall was a fragment of a mythological landscape, possibly Narcissus and Echo. See Schefold, K., 1957. Die Wande Pompejis. Berlin: De Gruyter. (p.268)
