Opis:

Drawing by César Famin (1827) of a roman fresco from the Osteria della Via di Mercurio (VI 10,1.19, room b) in Pompeii. The fresco has meanwhile been destroyed.

From:César Famin: Herculanum et Pompei. Le Musée Secret. (Paris 1836), Plate 35.

The two characters appear to be tightrope walkers, but this is probably an error of the draughtsman, who mistook a shadow line for a rope.
