According to Boyce –

Here was seen at the time of excavation a fragmentary sacred painting of which only one Lar with situla remained.

See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p.85, no.421).

He quotes the reference Notizie degli Scavi, 1878, 41 – which says

“Per la detta fauce, che contiene la latrina ed una vasca di marmo frammentata, si entra nel forno, presso al quale è praticato il solito piccolo vano che comunicava col panificium. Segue una stanza in parte scavata, la quale dava accesso ad altre località, che non ancora si sono disterrate. Sulla parete meridionale di essa è apparso un avanzo di pittura lararia, nel quale vedesi un Lare con la situla.”

(“Through the said corridor which contains the latrine and a fragmented marble basin, you enter (the room of) the oven, near which is the usual small room that communicated with the bakery. This is followed by a partly excavated room, which gave access to other localities, which have not yet been excavated. On the southern wall of it appeared a remnant of a Lararium painting, in which a Lar with a situla can be seen”.)
