Herculaneum: detail of mural in House of the Wooden Partition (photo: Athena Review)
This
detail of a mural in the 3rd style of painting, from a cubicula or
bedroom in the House of the Wooden Partition, shows a bird, and
floral motifs around an arbor or gate.
The use of fine line and restrained color creates a refined, delicate scene combining architectural and natural elements.
