Helbig describes the painting as:
“In the middle stands Iphigenia, laurel-wreathed, in green chiton with a purple margin, with her left hand raised to the mouth, it seems resigned in her fate, in front of her the bearded, laurel wreathed Calchas in red chiton with blue lining, in act of starting the sacrifice, cutting off a lock of the maiden’s hair with the sword.
Behind Iphigenia sits Agamemnon on a chair, bent forward, sunk in deep sorrow, beardless, wrapped in a cloak drawn over the back of the head, in the left hand a spear, supporting the head with the right hand. Next to him is a temple-like building, on which stands a winged statue with flying chlamys.”

VI.5.1 and VI.5.2 Pompeii. Painting made by Giuseppe Marsigli in pencil/crayon/chalk with watercolours, showing sacrifice of Iphigenia. 
This painting is shown reversed from that on the ICCD site and we show it as it is in Disegnatori which has the note “montata a rovescio” (mounted backward) and with the writing “sul rovescio del foglio” (on the reverse of the sheet). ADS 137 and ADS 138 are both dated 1935 and described as a house recently uncovered “propriamente nel secondo Vicolo entrando dalla parte dei Sepolcri”. They would therefore indicate the same house and the same painting.

VI.5.1 and VI.5.2 Pompeii. 
Two drawings by Zahn, July 1835, of the paintings showing Phaedra, Hippolytus and the nurse and the sacrifice of Iphigenia. 
Three paintings (two above and one below) were discovered in a room of a small house very close to the city wall, in the vicolo which was to the left of the House of Pansa, between the House of Sallust and the House of Modesto which leads to this city wall. According to Zahn they were in the Royal Museum at Naples.

VI.5.2 Pompeii. September 2005. Looking east. According to Fiorelli, this shop had a hearth at the rear, together with a passage to the garden of the neighbouring house. It also had various rooms for the dwelling, or for the use of its industry.  What ever that was, it cannot now be known with certainty, being as this structure was entirely destroyed.
