IX.2.21 Pompeii. March 2009. Doorway to room 5, a triclinium, from the atrium. According to Sogliano, found in the room on the right of the tablinum, on the entrance wall, was a mythological painting. It showed a young man, crowned with leaves, with a blue mantle, sitting on a rock, extending his left arm towards a standing baccante, as if to attract her to him. She was dressed in a green chiton with a violet mantle, and holding a long stick. See Sogliano, A., 1879. Le pitture murali campane scoverte negli anni 1867-79. Napoli: Giannini. (p.127, no.621)
