Summary

Description
Italiano: Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Napoli (inv. nr. 112222). Da Pompeii, Casa della Rissa nell'Anfiteatro (I, 3, 23) - L'affresco (particolare: anfiteatro di Pompei), famosissimo, è uno dei pochi che mostra un'ambientazione ed un episodio realistici. E' ritratto fedelmente l'anfiteatro di Pompei, con le mura della città alle sue spalle e la grande palestra con piscina centrale alla sua destra. L'episodio ritratto è quello della rissa scoppiata fra Pompeiani e Nucerini nell'anno 59 d.C. in cui ci furono numerosi morti, tanto da indurre il Senato Romano a proibire nell'anfiteatro di Pompei l'esecuzione dei giochi gladiatorii per ben dieci anni. L'episodio viene narrato dallo storico Tacito (Annali, XIV, 17).
Deutsch: Darstellung der Unruhen in Pompeji zwischen Pompejanern und Nucerianern im Jahr 59 auf einer pompejanischen Wandmalerei. Sogenannte "Volksmalerei". Besonders interessant ist das Sonnensegel auf der Zeichnung. Das Fresco befindet sich im Museo Archeologico Nazionale (Naples).
