House of the Prince of Naples, Pompeii

The House of the Prince of Naples is a Roman domus (townhouse) in Pompeii, Italy, dating to the 3rd century BC [1]. It takes its name from the Prince and Princess of Naples, who attended a ceremonial excavation of selected rooms in 1898 [1]. The dwelling is notable for its complete decoration in the Pompeian Fourth Style, a form of wall painting characterized by elaborate mythological scenes, architectural vistas, and ornate decorative panels that flourished in the late 1st century BC and early 1st century AD [1]. Unlike many Pompeian houses that exhibit multiple decorative phases, this residence is valued for its unified decorative scheme from a single period [1].
