IV.1.e Pompeii. Shop? Excavated 1842.

 

All the doorways on the northern side of Via Nola, forming Regio IV, have been filled in as a wall to keep the earth bank back from the road.

It is very difficult to find the exact position of these doorways and link them to any site plan.

Liselotte Eschebach has numbered these houses from IV.1.1 to IV.1.7. Our numbering is IV.1.a to IV.1.g, as in CTP IIIA.

See Eschebach, L., 1993. Gebäudeverzeichnis und Stadtplan der antiken Stadt Pompeji. Köln: Böhlau.

 

IV.1.d and IV.1.e Pompeii behind custodians shed. May 2006.
According to Liselotte Eschebach, there were Lararium paintings here.
She suggested this may possibly be F26 identified by Fröhlich as from Regio IV.

Kuivalainen comments –
“Bacchus is offering a bunch of grapes to the panther. The composition and its details, such as the large wreath, the thirsty/covetous panther with the naked Bacchus, and the considerable size of the vine, all emphasize the significance of the harvest.”
