1871 Woodcut Atrium House of Pansa Pompeii Italy Architecture Roman XGV9

This is an original 1871 black and white woodcut of the atrium of the House of Pansa located in Pompeii, Italy. The structure functioned as a hotel of sorts, offering rooms available to rent to inquilini or "lodgers." This clearly was more akin to a five-star establishment than a Motel 6.
