Central motif from Casa della Venere in Conchiglia


Central motif from Casa della Venere in Conchiglia. There are two things to notice about this picture; first of all that this kind of central motif is found in the so called 3rd style. Here we find a fantasy villa in miniature but animals are also common. Secondly, the colors - this beautiful red is found all over Pompeii and was obviously popular.
