VII.3.6 Pompeii. September 2005. According to Boyce, above a rectangular podium stood two columns coated with red stucco. These supported the roof with pediment. The semi-circular niche in the rear wall had its vaulted ceiling adorned with a stucco shell. The walls of the niche were painted orange and on each side of the niche was a stucco pilaster. A large marble statuette of Venus Anadyomene was found in the aedicula. On either side of the aedicula are two long vertical slits, Fiorelli suggested they may have held candelabra. See Boyce G.
