These two murals are close-ups of decorations found in "Villa Poppea" in Oplontis (near ancient Pompeii and modern Napoli). The villa is known to have been owned by the Emporer Nero and it is believed to have been his second wife's main residence when outside Rome (Poppaea Sabina).

It contains some of the most well preseved Roman Imperial art, and is considered a ancient world treasure. It was buried, along with Pompeii, in the 79AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius (Vesuvio). The Goddesses are commonly thought to be Diana (with her bow) and Flora (gathering plants).

Recolor of the Maxis "4th Element" wall hanging. I've attached them as a set, and as singular items. Oplontis 1 = Diana; Oplontis 2 = Flora
