Abstract

This chapter provides an iconological interpretation of the oecus I. 3. 25 at Pompeii. It analyzes the paintings as a representation of the tragedy Phaethon by Euripides. The chapter provides arguments that investigate visual narratives of the images and the arrangement of the figures in the spatial and iconographic framework, while considering the significance of the gladiators' role as owners of the domus and the survival of Euripides' tragedy through Seneca in 1st century Pompeii. The domestic environment of the oecus I.3.25 in Pompeii presents an iconographic program whose interpretation has not been unanimous among scholars throughout the decades. The articulation of the wall decoration as a scaenae frons in oecus I.3.25 forms a system that is most characteristic of the Pompeiian Fourth style. It outlines the social status and cultural definition of the domus I.3.25 owners have formed the principal arguments for hypothesis regarding the identification of the oecus' pictorialset which, in part, had already been outlined in existing sources.
