VI.12.2 Pompeii. Mosaic of two tragic masks between a group of flowers, fruits and garlands. Found in VI.12.2 as a threshold dividing the fauces (room 53) from the atrium, on 28th October 1830. See Mau, A., 1907, translated by Kelsey F. W. Pompeii: Its Life and Art. New York: Macmillan. (p. 290). Now in Naples Archaeological Museum. Inventory number 9994. According to Fiorelli, the tablinum 33 was also separated from the atrium, by a mosaic threshold of masks and garlands. He described this as reputed to be one of the most stupendous works of art, due to the excellence of the design, colours and workmanship. See Pappalardo, U., 2001. La Descrizione di Pompei per Giuseppe Fiorelli (1875). Napoli: Massa Editore, (p.71) See PAH II, 240.

VI.12.2 Pompeii. May 2006. Found in one of the two dining rooms at the side of the tablinum. Mosaic of the child Dionysus astride an animal with the head of a lion and the body of a tiger. Mau described it as a floor mosaic of the Genius of the autumn, represented as a vine crowned boy sitting on a panther and drinking out of a deep golden bowl. See Mau, A., 1907, translated by Kelsey F. W. Pompeii: Its Life and Art. New York: Macmillan. (p.292-3) Now in Naples Archaeological Museum. Inventory number 9991. Found 1st December 1830, see PAH II, 242. Kuivalainen comments: The potential Bacchus-emblema, a tiger-rider (MANN 9991), is more likely a Genius or a Cupid. See Kuivalainen, I., 2021. The Portrayal of Pompeian Bacchus. Commentationes Humanarum Litterarum 140. Helsinki: Finnish Society of Sciences and Letters, p. 75 note 352.
