Tiny House With Erotic Frescoes Uncovered - Pompeii

Archaeologists have uncovered a richly decorated small house with finely preserved erotic frescoes of mythological scenes in the ancient Roman city of Pompeii, Italy on October 2024. The vividly coloured wall paintings include one depicting a sexual encounter between a satyr and a nymph on a bed and another one of Phaedra, mythological queen, and her stepson Hippolytus. Phaedra, Cretan princess and wife of Theseus, fell in love with her stepson Hippolytus through the work of Aphrodite, who avenged the young man’s disdain for her. Hippolytus rejected Phaedra, and she, scorned, falsely accused him of trying to rape her. Another fresco features gods presumed to be Venus and Adonis. Experts say the exquisitely decorated abode, called the House of Phaedra after the mythological queen , sheds light on the changing architectural styles in the first century AD but is also further proof that the residents of Pompeii had an appetite for sensual art.
