Description:
|
The Secret Cabinet (Gabbinete) or Secret Room is the name of the Bourbon Monarchy gave the private rooms in which they held their fairly extensive collection of erotic or sexual items, mostly deriving from excavations of Pompeii and Herculaneum. Limiting viewership and censorship have always been part of the history of the collection. Found in Pollena Trocchia, at the excavations of what appears to be a small shrine at via San Gennariello in 1963. The dating of the group is problematic because of the destruction of the heads and arms. Also found was a statue of Dionysus. (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
