This Fresco is based on ancient marine mosaic from House of the Faun, Pompeii, Italy. The House of the Faun was built during the 2nd century BC, was one of the largest and most impressive private residences in Pompeii, and housed many great pieces of art. The building was only used as a house from the 2nd century BC until AD 79, ultimately rendered unusable by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. Although the eruption was devastating, the layers of ash covering the abandoned town preserved artworks, like the mosaics of the House of the Faun, which would have otherwise been likely destroyed or decayed due to the passage of time.
