VI.15.11 Pompeii. 1930s photo by Tatiana Warscher. West wall
of shop, with doorway into rear room.
According to Boyce, on the east wall in the room behind the
shop, was a very crude lararium painting.
In the upper zone stood the Lares in the usual attire and
position, between them was the Genius.
In the lower zone were two serpents confronted at an altar
furnished with two eggs.
In the background were plants.
Below the serpents, there were roughly sketched drawings of
a ham, a hog’s head, sausages, and other foods.
Above the panel and hanging down on each side, were painted
garlands.
