Eyes wide open and then flash ready to capture the dazzling beauty that you invest when you are at the front of the majestic mansion that was the politician Marco Lucrezio Frontone, one of the villas are considered among the most prestigious of all Pompei, with its fine architectural environments and precious frescoes of the third pompeian style. The domus is undoubtedly a rare view of the historical and cultural center of the archaeological Vesuvius.

But not over here.
The tour through the wonders of the urban … unedited Roman continues with a visit to another historic home, the so-called Romolo and Remo. The building is named after the discovery in the drawing room of a fresco depicting the moment of the birth of the city of Rome featuring the two famous twins along with the wolf.
Unfortunately the painting, following a bombing during the Second World War, is only part of the skirting. And the memory of the ancient masterpiece.
