Description:

Achilles and Agamemnon, depicted in a scene from Book I of the Iliad, where they quarrel over the return of Briseis. From the House of Apollo (VI.7.23), it was once part of a cubicle at the back of the garden; on the outside, the porous limestone covering held rich mosaic decorations.
