IX.14.4 Pompeii. December 2007. Three cubicula rooms C, E and F on the east side of the atrium. All of these doorways were found with their thresholds or sills made of lava. In the room on the left, the south wall still shows a small area of II style painted decoration. When found, the walls had large panels of painted imitation coloured marble, but the colour had faded. Each panel was surrounded by a yellow fascia, also of painted imitation marble.

IX.14.4 Pompeii. December 2007. Room E on east side of atrium. East wall. East wall. According to Sogliano, this cubicula had each of its walls decorated with three large panels. The panels had a white background, the base of the wall was painted red. In the middle of the central panel of the east wall was the only preserved medallion (dia. 0.21m). It was enclosed in a red circle and showed the head of two figures, one male and one female on a blue background. These may have been of Mars and Venus. In the middle of a side panel was a flying eagle with a rabbit between its claws. See Notizie degli Scavi, 1905, (p.253).
