The house of V. Popidius, located at #37 via dell' Abbondanza, is also sometimes called Casa delle Columbe (VII 14, 9). It has a marble impluvium in the atrium, surrounded by a series of small rooms or cubiculae which were probably bedrooms.

This view of the atrium looks across the impluvium to the doorway of one of the cubiculae.
