Walking more or less west on Via dell’ Abbondanza in Pompeii, the residence of L. Rapinasi Optati (I.4.25) is seen, looking south across the atrium. Across the street is the residence of Marco Epidio Rufo (IX.1.20). A few doors west, near the intersection of Via dell’ Abbondanza and Via Stabiana (Holconius’ Crossroad) is the Bar and Inn of Primus (IX.1.16). Finally, we reach Via Stabiana itself and look north up the street to view Mount Vesuvius in the background.
