Domestic fountains and green spaces in the Regio II of Pompeii: the domus of Octavius Quartio and the building of Praedia of Iulia Felix
1 : University of Pisa
The aim of the presentation is the analysis of the domestic fountains located within the green spaces of homes and buildings in the south-eastern sector of the city of Pompeii, specifically in reference to the house of Octavius Quartio and the building of Praedia of Iulia Felix. By examining some of these fountains, we will analyze their meaning and how the latter, interacting both with the natural elements and with the pictorial and sculptural ornamentation of the gardens, can influence the perception of those spaces.
