Room 60: Portico on west side of pool.
According to Wilhelmina, “Little more of the pool had been excavated, but of special interest were the unusually fine details in the paintings on the white wall of the portico facing the pool. One was a painting of a goat, others were a European robin, a grasshopper, and a cricket perched on, or alighting on, delicately painted ivy garlands.”
