VII.3.8 Pompeii but shown as VII.3.9 on photo. 1930s photo by Tatiana Warscher. Room “c”, west wall. Lararium and altar. Photo courtesy of American Academy in Rome, Photographic Archive. Warsher collection no. 587. According to Boyce – “Against the W. wall of the central room of the dwelling quarters stands a masonry altar (0.45 by 0.50, h. 0.75), coated with yellow stucco and having the two serpents painted on the wall, one on each side of it. In the wall above the altar is an arched niche (h. 0.54, w. 0,47, d. 0.17, b. above the floor 1.0), its inside walls coated with red stucco, upon which the attributes of Hercules - a club and a skyphos twined with laurel - are reported to have been painted. The niche today shows a coating with white stucco bordered with red stripes, and upon it are painted realistic red roses. On the wall above the niche was the ordinary lararium painting of the Genius in white toga with cornucopia and patera and on each side of him a Lar. The background was richly decorated throughout: in the upper panel beside the Lares were plants and birds, on the interior of the niche were red roses, around the serpents were plants and flowers. A small panel between the top of the altar and the ledge projecting below the niche was painted in imitation of coloured marble. Fiorelli states in the Scavi that the niche perhaps contained a statuette of Hercules, in the Descr. that it did contain such a statuette; the report in the Bull. Inst. mentions no statuette. See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p.63-4, Pl.12,1).
