V.1.15 Pompeii. March
2009. Doorway to room on south side of entrance, leading into V.1.16. Looking
west.
According to Boyce,
in this area should have been the lararium, presumably destroyed in 1943.
He described it as
being in a house transformed into a workshop.
In the west wall of
the atrium, near the south-west corner was a rectangular niche with aedicula
façade and projecting floor.
The inside walls were
painted blue and the opening of the niche was outlined with red stripes on the
white background of the wall of the room.
