	Herculaneum: House of the Great Portal, Bacchanalian masks Herculaneum:  Triclinium murals in House of the Great Portal (photo: Athena Review)
	In the House of the Great Portal, the upper walls of the triclinium contained murals paintings with Bacchanalian themes and illusionistic stage set compositions.  This detail from the large 4th style painting in the triclinium shows a pair of tragic or Baccanalian masks painted on curtains over a stage-like platform.
