Eldorado Posted March 20 #1 Share Posted March 20 The House of the Vettii, home to one of Pompeii’s most extraordinary assemblages of frescoes, recently reopened to the public after more than two decades of closure. (It was partially reopened in 2016, allowing visitors into the entrance area and the atrium, but closed again entirely in 2019.) Visitors briefly got a chance to rub shoulders with archaeologists, architects, engineers and landscaping experts as they embarked on a comprehensive multi-disciplinary restoration project to conserve the famed wall and floor decorations, address major structural issues, renovate the colonnaded garden and install a new state-of-the-art drainage system. http://www.thehistoryblog.com/archives/66783 House of the Vettii https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_the_Vettii 7 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
