When I analyze this painting, my eyes are drawn to the building in the bottom left which seems to resemble a church. It has a white steeple and roof line along with light red brick for the walls. The color, style, size, and position of this particular building sets it apart from the rest of the buildings which all seem to blend together along the composition.

One example is that it has two scenes on one painting, one scene of Christ being arrested and an Apostle fleeing, and another of Christ’s body being mourned. One scene is when one of Christ’s Apostles, either Mark or John, flees as Christ is being arrested by the Romans.
Over in the middle of the painting, there is a more pronounced aperture looking over a waterway and rocks. The outline of the aperture makes up the shape of the face, the woman sitting down looking over the other way forms the mouth and nose of the face and the rocks at the distance form the eyes.

Within a large villa on the outskirts of the ancient city of Pompeii, resides an intriguing cycle of frescoes. They depict life size mythological creatures and statuesque women engaged in various activities, which have often been connected with the initiation into the cult of the Greek God Dionysus, or Bacchus. (Figure 1-11) Since their discovery in 1909, these fascinating images have become the focus of ample amounts of scholarly research and debate over the true nature of their meaning. Was this a space for domestic cult practice and initiations, or the private apartment of the materfamilias, or domina?
