IV.2.d Pompeii. House of a Wine Producer or seller?

Excavated 1841-3 and 1902.

 

All the doorways on the northern side of Via Nola, forming Regio IV, have been filled in as a wall to keep the earth bank back from the road.

It is very difficult to find the exact position of these doorways and link them to any site plan.

Liselotte Eschebach has numbered these houses from IV.2.1 to IV.2.7. Our numbering is IV.2.a to IV.2.g, as in CTP IIIA.

IV.2.d Pompeii. March 2009.  Entrance.
According to Liselotte Eschebach, there was a Lararium painting here.
This was a painting of three satyrs holding hands and treading grapes in a wine press.
A youth collected the wine which flowed through a lions’ head into a large dolium.
A figure in a long robe, possibly the Genius, stood by a round altar.
She suggested this may possibly be F23 identified by Fröhlich as from Regio IV.

IV.2.d Pompeii. 1841 drawing by G. Abbate of lararium painting by entrance.
According to Liselotte Eschebach, there was a Lararium painting here.
She suggested this may possibly be F23 identified by Fröhlich as from Regio IV.
According to Fröhlich, the picture F23 was similar to this one (F22) but differs from it in the following points:
The Satyrs hold hands, two are seen from the front, one from behind. 
The tub has on one narrow side a spout in the form of a lion's head, from which the wine emerges and flows into a large buried dolium, which a young man in a short tunic is tending to. 
On the left below, a figure in a long robe makes a sacrifice on a round altar, probably the genius.
