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. It is unclear whether the images on the walls of brothels (lupenare) were advertisements for the services offered or merely intended to heighten the pleasure of the visitors.
