Wall painting: portrait of a man and a woman. The man is shown bare-chested and the woman, whose hairstyle suggests an Augustan date, is wearing a powder-blue tunic and a matching headband. This roundel or medallion originally formed part of the decorative scheme on a painted wall in a house in Pompeii and is in the third Pompeiian style.
