Façade with Rocks

Façade with Rocks

Two joining pieces preserving part of a red anta at right, and a frieze of alternating red and black beam-ends with a red beam below and another above. Below the architrave is a zone of black and white checkerboard, and then pointed rocks of blue, red and pink with darker colored veins and outlines. At bottom is a black horizontal marked off with incised line; this is probably the top band of the border above a nautilus frieze.
