VII.11.6 Pompeii. December 2005. Garden area looking south towards exedra in centre of south wall. December 2005. According to Helbig, found in the middle room behind the peristyle was a painting of Oreste and Pilades at Tauris. See Helbig, W., 1868. Wandgemälde der vom Vesuv verschütteten Städte Campaniens. Leipzig: Breitkopf und Härtel. (1335) According to Jashemski, this once fine house, converted into a hospitium after the earthquake, at one time had a large peristyle garden. It had a portico on all four sides. The columns were joined by a low wall which enclosed the garden, leaving one entrance to the garden on the north, and two on the south. A cistern opening was enclosed in the low wall on the north. Only a few stumps of the columns are preserved. There was a gutter around the edges of the garden. See Jashemski, W. F., 1993.
