The House of the Beautiful Courtyard, Herculaneum.
This is one of the things which make Herculaneum so special - experiencing interior spaces which still exist, untouched (save the ravages of time), from the ancient world.

Details from a fresco showing ancient women - A mother, two daughters and an ancilla (servant/slave girl).
This piece lives behind glass in the museum at Herculaneum; so I do apologise for the reflections visible.

Details of relief in the palaestra of the Central Baths, Pompeii.
Above, a bird with a sprig of flowers (perhaps) in its beak beside a female figure. Below, two male figures, one much smaller than the other. The smaller appears to be carrying a club or something similar.
