The database tells me that it is of Mercury, from Pompeii, now in the Naples Archaeological Museum, is in the Fourth Style of Pompeian wall-painting, and dates to the first century AD. What it doesn't tell me is which house in Pompeii it's from, and I can't find this painting illustrated in any of my books on Pompeii. Googling isn't producing anything. Anyone out there know?

Hello!
I'm a spanish man interesting in Pompeii. This painting, discovered during the XVIII's century, comes from a unknown house or probably from a shop's faÇade. It's imposible locate in a certain house.
I'm sorry for my english. Cheers!
Thanks, that's very useful.
