Personal pictures of some of the BEAUTIFULLY preserved artwork in Pompeii

I took all of these on a study abroad trip that I had the great fortune of being able to go on at the beginning of this year :)

I haven’t been able to STOP thinking about them, so here ya go🤲🏼

i may, or may not, have gotten this one piece of wall art (the fig tree & snake) tattooed on my body…

these incredibly detailed wall pieces are a part of the Dionysus Mystery Cult walls and had our whole group stopped for a GOOD 20-30 min…
