    Second style painted in cream and red, some with decoration. 527 grams total, 6.7-11.8 cm



    Acquired in the 19th century. Ex Jeger collection, Switzerland.

    These small fragments, for analogies with the fragments of Pompeii, seems to belong to the second style of Roman painting, red panels representing highlight and shadow, decorated with vegetal interlaces. Some panels were probably framed by a red grenade fillet. A fragment shows alternate blue and red colour over a cream background, maybe pertinent to a socle.
