IX.7.16 Pompeii. May 2010. Cubiculum.  West wall of a room with the remains of painted plaster, on the south side of the atrium. According to Schefold, on the west wall a painting of Mars and Venus was found. (Helbig 323)  A drawing of the painting can be seen in Schefold, K., 1962. Vergessenes Pompeji. Bern: Francke. (fig.55, 3)  On the east wall, not photoed, a drawing of the painting of Achilles receiving the arms can be seen in fig.55, 4. On the south wall, on the left of the photo, a fragment of the wall painting of Cassandra, Hector, was found. 
According to Boyce, the room behind this wall would have been the kitchen.  This would have had a lararium painting on the north and west wall. Traces of an older lararium painting, not entirely covered by the later one, were to be seen on the west wall. A figure of a Lar could be made out on the left side. See Boyce G. K., 1937. Corpus of the Lararia of Pompeii. Rome: MAAR 14. (p. 87, no.436) and Boyce gives the reference Bull. Inst., 1883, 145.
