The side panels would have been blue separated by narrow divisions (which were red).
The frieze was black.
The upper zone was faded and colourless but would have had architectural designs.
On the east wall would have been a black dado, in the central red panel of the middle zone would have been a banqueting painting with a couple on a bed.
The side panels would have been yellow.
