I.9.13-14 Pompeii. 1952 photo taken during excavation. Looking south through tablinum 6 to entrance at I.9.13.
This photo shows the excavations in progress and the “ground level” is still several feet above the level today.
Only the top half of the tablinum wall on the right has been uncovered.
The missing plaster in the centre and the plaster decoration on the wall matches that in the photo of the now enclosed tablinum above.
The matting on top of the wall is also in the 1952 picture of room 7 which is behind this wall.
A tapered window in room 15 can also be seen in the far right of the photograph.
In the Illustrated London News this was published as being a recent excavation on the north side of the Via dell’Abbondanza.
I.9.13-14 has its main entrance at I.9.13 on the north side of Via di Castricio, but south of Via dell’Abbondanza.
