According to Breton [1855], a large doorway gives entry to the large peristyle of 14 m 10 and 11 metres deep; It was supported by ten columns, which still carry a fragment of entablature. In the right corner is a recess, a kind of cabinet, where we found a few small terracotta vases. The walls of the peristyle were decorated with alternately red and yellow panels with figures of Diana, of Leto, of Victories, Bacchae, etc. Right at the bottom of the peristyle are a triclinium where are the weak remnants of two Geniuses and a greyhound and in the middle, a small oecus preceded by two ornate pillars of rich arabesques of a style a lot less light than in other buildings in Pompeii. On the left wall was a mediocre but interesting painting of the subject in which Mr. Minervini recognized Alcmaeon killing his mother Eriphyle; this painting has been removed [to the Naples Museum]. Finally to the left of the oecus, in a small room, are several heads in medallions and three paintings, Venus and Adonis, Diana and Endymion, and a scene in which the same scientist saw Orestes and Pylades recognized by Iphigenia, and thinking how to flee from Tauris; we thought ourselves that it was probably Leda and the Dioscuri, a subject that seemed more in relation to the mythological compositions that surround it; today a further assumption is issued by Mr. Ed. Brizio; the absence of heroic costume, the hue of realism that dominates in this composition made him think that the seated figure that he took for a woman is something else, that of a magistrate dressed in gown listening to two litigants, and Mr. Minervini agreed with this opinion.

According to Fiorelli –

At the rear of the atrium was the door that led into the peristyle, of which the front walkway served perhaps as a tablinum.

On the walls of this portico, were noted:

On the right, various indeterminate figures and a bacchante:

On the left, a naval Vittoria, Diana, Leto and another Vittoria bearing a sword:

In front facing, a bacchante:

And in the Frieze, birds, gorgons’ heads, baskets hanging from ribbons, quadrupeds, and other decorations. In the middle was the garden

(“Nel fondo dell’atrio eravi la porta che immetteva nel peristilio, di cui l’ambulacro anteriore serviva forse di tablino. Sulle pareti di questo portico si notavano:

a destra varie figure indeterminate ed una Baccante:

a sinistra, una Vittoria navale, Diana, Latona, ed altra Vittoria recante una spada:

di fronte, una Baccante:

e nel fregio uccelli, teste gorgoniche, cesti pendenti da nastri, quadrupedi, ed ornati diversi. Stava nel mezzo il giardino.”)

VI.1.25 Pompeii. 1853. Drawing titled House at Pompeii excavated for the visit of the Imperial Russian Princes.
From The Illustrated London News, 30th April 1853, p. 329.
On the 14th April from Naples our own correspondent reported that 
“As we entered the Stabian Street we observed on either side a series of dwellings, ………… We next proceeded to the most important house yet found in this street, and which had been lately excavated for the Imperial Princes of Russia (See Illustration). You enter a wide portico of the ostarius, paved with marble, where an elegant table of the same material is placed. The clawed legs of this table are carved with fruits, and the form is very elegant. You then come upon the atrium, with the usual impluvium. None of the surrounding columns is perfect; and only one of the capitals was found, which is rather grotesque than classical. The circular object near one of the columns is a Well, fluted all round, the rim of which bears traces of having been much used. The alae or wings of this dwelling occur at the further end. The centre room is large, and might have been used as a triclinium. It is decorated with those floral romances and architectural illusions which glitter brightly on the walls of Pompeii. This room opens into two smaller apartments – one on the left, and one on the right – nearly destroyed. The main wall on the right contains a niche with steps, but no statue was found. The present dwelling, like most of the houses of Pompeii, had evidently been well rifled by the ancients. Some copper kitchen utensils and a few unimportant marble decorative garden sculptures are all that was found in a dwelling of so much importance. *”

Footnote: 
* “The small objects found at Pompeii are always removed to the Museum of Naples. Up to the present time no attempt has been made to restore a house and furnish it, although so much material exists for so doing.”

According to Breton many of the roof tiles contained the name of the maker N. Sabinus.

VI.1.25 Pompeii. 1853. Drawing titled Roof Excavation Near the Gate of Stabia.
From The Illustrated London News, 30th April 1853, p. 329.
On the 14th April from Naples our own correspondent reported that “Threading our way through the back doorway of this house, we came upon the most remarkable discovery which has yet taken place, viz., the complete roofing of a house, of which I send you a drawing. It will be remembered that Pompeii having been destroyed by falling ashes, and then covered by earth, was the occasion of the roofs falling in. The very little care used in clearing away the incumbent earth has left us in the dark about the construction of ancient roofings. Here, then, for the first time, we have a complete roof of a house formed of square tiles, about twelve inches by twelve, with coping tiles running between them; and over the back-bone, so to speak, of the construction, a cement was used to make the roofing water-tight. So perfect is the roof, that it might have been constructed yesterday, and it would suit an English cottage.”
