VIII.2.1/3 Pompeii. 1855 plan by Breton. House A = VIII.2.3, House B = VIII.2.1. North is at the bottom of the plan.
The cryptoporticus of the lower level 1 is under the portico/peristyle (r) in the house on the right of the above plan. (p. 341)
According to Breton –
“The cryptoporticus, which extends under the portico of the peristyle, surrounds the four rooms located under the area, rooms empty of any decoration, and the one which served as a kitchen still retains its stove. Several small vaults also open onto the cryptoporticus, which no doubt also communicated with the summer apartment situated under the terrace and under the oecus.  
Of the rooms which composed it, only one is visible, it is 8m.80 by 4m.90. (28ft 10 x 16ft 1). 
Its floor is composed of charming designs in black and white mosaic. In the black panels of the walls were painted some masks, and fantastique animals.  
Above was an elegant stucco cornice, and then a painted vault, nearly entirely destroyed.” (p.342)
See Breton, Ernest. 1855. Pompeia, decrite et dessine : Seconde édition. Paris, Baudry, (p.340-2, plan on p. 340)
