This print titled "Garden with the water channel, said Euripos, the house of Octavio Quartio (Loreio Tiburtino) in Pompeii" takes us on a journey back in time to ancient Roman civilization. Captured by Alinari, Fratelli during the years 1930-1935, this image showcases the remarkable architecture and landscape of Pompeii's House of Octavio Quartio.
