IX.9.a Pompeii. March 2009. Arched niche in west wall, with lararium painting below. According to NdS, the only decoration that remained from the peristyle walls was the lararium painting on the west wall, under the small niche. Here the Genius could be seen sacrificing at an altar, a serpent wrapped around the altar, from the right could be seen a Camillus carrying ribbons and a plate, with a knife for sacrificing the pig. The pig was decorated with a large band around its belly.  See Notizie degli Scavi, 1888, p. 515.

IX.9.a Pompeii. March 2009. Looking north into room “g”, on north-west side of the garden.
The room was described as opening from the north portico with two doorways of varying widths. The room was quite spacious and used maybe as a triclinium. It had flooring of crushed brick. The walls were painted yellow with stucco relief and green painted cornice, divided by narrow bands of white stucco on a red painted background and ornamented with leaves. Between the panels and the plinth (zoccolo) ran a band of stucco also in relief, imitating coloured marble.  Later this decoration was altered, as could be seen on the plinth of the west wall. See Notizie degli Scavi, 1888, p.515
