VI.15.5 Pompeii. March 2009. Room 8, looking east across triclinium. According to NdS, the floor of the triclinium was “alla veneziana”. It was first decorated in the Second Style, with ashlars painted red-cinnabar, surrounded by green ribbons. From the dado with a yellow background protruded, in perspective, some pilasters with cornice and base, on which columns rested, simulated to support a portico around the walls. Fortunately for us, this beautiful but simple decoration had survived as it would have been substituted by another, as the room was found full of building materials such as limestone and others. See Notizie degli Scavi, January 1897, (p.28)

VI.15.5 Pompeii. March 2009. Looking across south portico to doorway to room 10. According to NdS, this room had a window overlooking the garden. The mosaic floor not only covered the floor of the room but also the walkway of the south portico. According to Sogliano in NdS, this meant that previously the floor had belonged to a much broader room with a doorway turned to the east. This wall was later demolished and the smaller room 10 was formed, together with the south portico. This new smaller room had a doorway in its north wall and newly-built rustic walls. See Notizie degli Scavi, January 1897, (p.28)
