This fresco was discovered in the Suburban Baths at Pompeii, which served as a public bath house. This erotic image was discovered in the dressing room (apodyterium) amongst other images of similar dispositions, and it is widely thought that these distinctive images reminded the bathers whereabouts they left their items. The baths were originally discovered in the 1950’s, whilst the erotic images were only discovered in the 1980’s, and according to some, this particular fresco may contradict the commonly held understanding of the male customer/female prostitution notion.

On this day in 1492, Piero della Francesca died in his hometown of Borgo San Sepolcro. He was in his late seventies. A painter and theorist, Piero is known for his experiments with linear perspective and the oil medium, which both served his keen interest in naturalism. Piero also excelled as a fresco painter; his most beloved cycle adorns the cappella maggiore of the Church of San Francesco in Arezzo.
