Pompeian Fresco

An androgynous depiction of The Three Graces.

A subject that later inspired Botticelli and Raphael.

When Mount Vesuvius erupted in AD79, molten rock, ash and volcanic gases smothered the cities and towns of Pompeii, Herculaneum, Boscoreale and Stabiae.

Their beautifully preserved wall decorations were discovered in excavations from the late 1600s onwards, with many of them moved to museums like the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli (Mann) for safekeeping.

Today, they provide valuable insights into the tastes, customs, diets and painterly techniques of ancient Rome.
