Italy, Naples, Naples Museum, from Herculaneum, Fragment of Architecture with Satyrs
The fragment, from Herculaneum, is a typical example of decoration in the mature 3rd Style. The architectural motifs are traced against the black and bright red background as a mere pretext for ornamentation in brilliant cold colours, drawn with calligraphic precision and set out according to a calculated geometric scheme.
