House of Bicentenary
Herculaneum Ruins


The house was discovered by Amadeo Maiuri, and named after the bicentenial celebrations being held that year to commemorate the beginning of the excavation of Herculaneum.

The house, which belonged to Gaius Petronius Stephanus, was one of the finest private houses in Herculaneum. The entrance to the house is on the south side of the Decumanus Maximus, situated between shops as shown in the photographs above and opposite. The fauces leads to a large square atrium (pictured right), with a marble lined impluvium and rooms off all four sides. The fourth style frescoes are of architectural and animal motifs on a red ground with an upper zone, separated by a broad light red band, featuring geometric designs in red on white. The tablinum has a fine mosaic floor in opus tesselatum: a geometric pattern in black and white, with a central panel in opus sectile
