EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Landscape Painting from the Exedra in the House of Vesonius Primus, a Fuller This stunning chromolithograph is a faithful reproduction of a landscape painting discovered in the Exedra, or open-air loggia, of the House of Vesonius Primus in Pompeii. The painting, executed in the classical Roman style, offers a captivating glimpse into the daily life and scenic beauty of ancient Rome. The House of Vesonius Primus, a well-preserved residence unearthed during the archaeological excavations of Pompeii, was named after its original owner, a fuller. A fuller was responsible for the final processing of wool, including washing, carding, and pressing, making it an essential occupation in the thriving textile industry of the Roman civilization. The landscape painting, created by an unknown artist, depicts a picturesque town or city scene. The vibrant colors and intricate details showcase the artist's mastery of the classical style. The painting's focal point is a bustling street filled with people and various activities. On the left, a group of men are engaged in a lively conversation, while on the right, a woman in a flowing robe is seen tending to her garden. In the background, the landscape transitions into a serene countryside, with rolling hills, a winding river, and a quaint bridge connecting the two banks. The harmonious blend of urban and rural elements reflects the interconnectedness of daily life in ancient Rome. This exquisite chromolithograph, produced by Victor Steeger after an illustration by Geremia Discanno, is a testament to the enduring allure of Pompeian art and the rich history of the Roman civilization. It serves as a reminder of the captivating beauty and intricacies of the ancient world, as captured in the House of Vesonius Primus' landscape painting from the Exedra.
