Naples, National Archaeological Museum, Hall LXIX
(Napoli, Museo archeologico nazionale, Sala LXIX).
On a wall were discovered paintings that showed painted architecture and ships, and each arched doorway showed the bow of a ship.
Of the paintings found, only three showing the five boats were cut and preserved, the others were left where they were found.
Also possibly provenanced from this room might be the paintings, NAP 8691, 8817, 8876, 9437, showing respectively a griffin, sphynx, sea monster and landscape.
