This room is entirely frescoed in a romantic concept of Greco-Roman antiquities. The room is a partially tented-over archeological site and suggests a Mediterranean landscape of vistas and ruins which is an excuse for Marchiori to represent various myths. The entire room is masterful trompe l’oeil painting. On the ceiling is Icarus falling, while the walls depict Prometheus bound, the Minotaur, Venus, Poseidon, Pan, a large head of Oedipus with the Sphinx whispering in his ear, the two faces of Janus, and the Trojan horse.
