This wall painting (2nd c. AD) from Terme di Buticoso depicts stylized plants against a red background. Garden scenes were common in Roman baths, evoking nature’s vitality and creating an illusion of open space. The imagery complemented the baths’ restorative purpose, blending luxury with the tranquility of nature.
