Description:

|
The ancient villa was discovered under the grounds of the present Villa Farnesina in Trastevere in 1879, during maintenance works on the banks of the Tiber. In the exhibition space of Palazzo Massimo the restored frescoes have been recomposed within rooms of the original dimensions. The goal was to recreate, to the extent possible, walking through the long gallery of the cryptoporticus (hidden portico) as far as the garden, on which faced the winter triclinium (dining room) and two cubicola (bedchambers). This was a true hortus conclusus (enclosed garden). The walls that surrounded the real garden were decorated with a painted garden, like an extension of the real one. The three panels decorated the south wall. (Source: Area Archeology of Rome [website]; http://archeoroma.be niculturali.it/en/)
