History
An opulent Roman domus in the Transtiberim with a complex plan and an extraordinary program of painted and stuccoed decorations, the so-called "Casa della Farnesina" lies beneath the gardens of the Renaissance Villa della Farnesina. One hypothesis holds that it was built following the wedding of Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa and Iulia the Elder. Its wall paintings are a key example of the so-called 'Third style' of Roman wall painting.
