VI.5.13 Pompeii. September 2004. Looking north across atrium towards rear rooms. According to Jashemski, Fiorelli thought that the atrium had a space in the middle for growing plants. She said that Overbeck-Mau thought the planting beds were in the top of a low wall that enclosed the implvium. There were two cistern mouths near the impluvium. See Jashemski, W. F., 1993. The Gardens of Pompeii, Volume II: Appendices. New York: Caratzas. (p.126) According to Fiorelli, found in the atrium were two paintings. One represented Ulysses and Circe, the other Achilles being recognised by Ulysses at the court of Lycomedes. In the tablinum, two badly damaged paintings were found. One of Phryxus and Helle, the other of Adonis wounded. There were also figures in the middle of the ornately painted architecture, Helbig’s numbers 979, 994, 1000. See Pappalardo, U., 2001. La Descrizione di Pompei per Giuseppe Fiorelli (1875). Napoli: Massa Editore. (p54) According to Helbig, found in the atrium were Odysseus and Circe (1329), Achilles at Skyros, (1299), and Seasons (979, 994 and 1001?) In the tablinum, Phrixos 1252, and Adonis, 343, were found, and above was Hermes 360b, See Helbig, W., 1868. Wandgemälde der vom Vesuv verschütteten Städte Campaniens. Leipzig: Breitkopf und Härtel.
