Ave Civitas,
I am searching for information on what the interior walls of the homes and houses of Romans would have looked like.
I see lots of pictures of floors, I have a book on Roman Furniture, but nothing on how they decorated the insides of their houses.
I have seen and read of some walls with murals, but what about the homes of people other than the senatorial class?
Did they prefer light pastel colors inside, whitewash, dark mahogany paneling?
Any thoughts, any resources you would recommend for me to get?
As always, Thanks for your help
Tom
