Description:
|
Part of the 2015 "Pompeii" exhibit which featured over 220 archaeological artifacts, most from the Naples National Archaeological Museum. The exhibit was designed to immerse viewers in settings of every day life in Pompeii, complete with state-of-the-art visual effects and soundscapes. This panel consists of two frescoes in Third Style, probably separated from two side walls of the same room and assembled in a single frame after discovery. The architecture is complex and has been rendered with correct perspective. The left landscape shows a porticus dominated in the center by a majestic classroom; in the foreground is a garden with a tree. The second fresco has a triplex porticus with a garden in the center and, in the background, other buildings, including a tholos on the left. From the Villa di Cicerone or Villa of Cicero.
