Iphigenia in Pompeii<\/strong>. New frescoes from the House of the Painters at work<\/strong><\/p>\n During recent excavations at the insula dei Casti Amanti in Pompeii (R IX), a small, richly decorated room was found in an excellent state of preservation. The three panels depict Perseus and Andromeda, in the iconography of the contemplation of Medusa’s head, a child surrounded by bunches of grapes and pomegranates, and a scene depicting Iphigenia purifying Orestes in an original iconographic composition that enriches the panorama of images inspired by the unfortunate daughter of Agamemnon. The iconographic\/iconological analysis of the decoration allows us to hypothesise the existence of a specific decorative programme desired by the owner of the house.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In co-operation with the Institutum Romanum Finlandiae<\/a> and the Unione Internazionale<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Francesca Ghedini<\/b> is Professor Emeritus of Archaeology at the University of Padua.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The conference will be held at the Istituto Svizzero in Rome in Italian.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Swiss Institute is pleased to host the annual conference of the Unione Internazionale degli Istituti di Archeologia, Storia e Storia dell\u2019Arte\u00a0 in Rome.
